How we work

Start free. Move one agreed step at a time.

Every engagement follows the same order. You see what each step delivers and what it touches before it starts, and you can stop after any step.

  1. 01

    Free first review

    You send the location, the current connection limit and the power you need. We return a site power summary, the options worth investigating and a suggested next action.

    Assessment

    We study the connection terms, a year of meter data and the equipment list. You get what the site can commit to, the battery or flexible load it would need, and the open questions for the network operator.

    Shadow mode

    A controller reads the meter and the equipment and records what it would have done in each event. Nothing is written to your site. You review the record before anything moves on.

    Supervised operation

    The controller proposes an action and your operator approves or rejects it. The scope is small and listed in advance. The override and the stop switch are tested first.

    3 to 4 weeks

    Automatic operation in test windows

    The controller acts on its own in the windows you agree, including a test with the internet link cut. You then get a report with the event records and a clear go or no-go.

    2 to 3 weeks

Durations are typical values from our pilot plan and are confirmed per site. A site that only needs the assessment stops after step 2.

What we need from you

Data you already have.

  • Country, location and network operator
  • The connection agreement or the offer you have received
  • Twelve months of 15-minute meter data, where available
  • A list of the main loads, and any battery or generation on site
  • The limits your process or your tenants need us to respect

What we do not promise

The limits of our role.

  • We do not grant or reserve grid capacity. The network operator decides capacity, terms and dates.
  • We do not guarantee savings. The assessment states the assumptions behind every figure.
  • We do not control protected loads or tenant equipment.
  • We do not supply generating plant or batteries. We help you compare suppliers.

Why we start read-only

Tested before it reaches your site.

GridPass is tested in software simulations and on a hardware test bench with an industrial edge controller before it touches a site. Every pilot still starts read-only, and moves only as fast as you and your network operator agree.

You can inspect the work before you talk to us: the simulation, the one-year replay, the data-centre study and the calculators are public.
