Local Sustainable Power Plants for energy resilience
Know Gridscape
Gridscape is California’s leading renewable energy local power plant (microgrid) developer and operator. With over 100 microgrids in various stages of deployment and multiple CEC and DOE grants, Gridscape sets the standard for high quality, cost-effective, standards-based renewable emergency microgrids for vast range of C&I sites including fire stations, municipal buildings, cities, manufacturing facilities, affordable housing, warehouse and fleet EV charging.
Gridscape’s comprehensive approach (deployment and O&M) provides robust, scalable, and future-proof for any entities looking to become independent of their utilities for their energy needs. By integrating advanced hardware with AI-driven software, Gridscape ensures efficient, resilient, and sustainable energy systems, driving the adoption of renewable energy and enhancing grid resilience.
What sets us apart from others in the category:
Our product centric approach (vs Project Centric Methodology) for scalability, making the solution completely software driven.
Gridscape solutions/products are future proof, simply put; there is no technology obsolescence.
It is dynamically configurable (this allows you to change microgrid operational mode on demand).
Comprehensive integration with EV charging infrastructure â power behind EV Charging.
Full energy management including demand charge reduction, TOU arbitrage, resiliency, & grid services.
Multi-site interconnected network of microgrids provides grid services including VPP, aggregated demand response, peak shifting and resource adequacy.
Gridscape has contracted or deployed almost 96 microgrids across California.
Microgrid System
Gridscape EnergyScopeTM DERMS Microgrid System
Itâs out-of-the-box thinking in a box. Our microgrid is an industry-first expandable box that packs battery energy storage, inverter, controller, interconnection relay, critical load, panel and other essential components. In other words, itâs a microgrid in a box that contains all the necessary software and hardware required to generate renewable energy. That makes it easy to install and operate. Thatâs not all.
Letâs take a look at its many advantages.
When we say it is everything-in-a-box, we mean it. For, it packs multiple operational benefits. Control, being one of them.
All thanks to the integrated Gridscape EnergyScopeTM
controller in the grid BESS system. It puts daily operation and management directly under your control.
AI integration makes it a scalable architecture and provides real-time updates and motoring like fault detection, alarm monitoring, performance management and remote diagnostic capabilities.
The good bit doesnât end there.
The Gridscape EnergyScopeTM Microgrid BESS system is a weatherproof 1P55- rated, robust system. For added safety, the system includes a fire suppression system, off-gassing safety system, security surveillance video camera, energy meters to measure utility grid power, critical load equipment and other components. In short, itâs loaded with safety features too.
EV Chargers
EV Chargers to recharge the planet.
Before we talk about how Gridscape deploys fast and safe chargers, we must touch upon why we need it in the first place.
EV Charging is set to grow- exponentially, as the following facts confirm.
Electric vehicle (EV) ownership is expected to reach approximately 125 million units by 2030. To cut down on emissions, many countries have laid out plans to phase out combustion engines by 2050. Price subsidies and tax reductions on EV vehicles are happening right now. That’s great. But these trends will also pose some challenges that will need addressing.
Gridscape is helping companies with fleet electrification, check out our ‘fleet electrification’ section to know more.
As EV increases, so will the demand for EV charging infra. Managing peak load will require modification in charging stations and the grid. Griscapeâs Energy Scope cloud-based DERM brings dynamism to the grids.
EnergyScopeTM controller provides real-time updates on the energy flow. The controller can be easily integrated with various other DERs seamlessly without major design changes. Also, Gridscape deploys fast DC chargers and Level 2 AC EV chargers.
Making the process smoother is our ePay Kiosk that allows for cashless transactions.
But the thing that we take pride in the most is the fact that itâs all green energy.
OCPP Solutions
Keeping things simple and easy with Our OCPP Solutions
Along with our high-tech solar grids, we also provide a complete OCPP cloud server for EV charging. We call it the Gridscape EnergyScopeTM DERMS Cloud. And it surely makes life easy from an operational point of view. This cloud-based distributed energy resources (DER) management platform can manage a network of individual distributed energy resources such as solar PV system, battery ESS system, diesel generator set, EV charging system (DC or AC) that can span across many utility regions, customer sectors and building types.
If it sounds like an information overload, itâs not. A unified dashboard brings it all together for you. It helps in the management and control of solar PV output; battery ESS performance and OCPP based EV charging system management for both DC and AC chargers. It becomes the central console for implementing, testing, management and control.
A look at all our products and services. In brief.
