Plexigrid

In Europe, a data center can now wait 7 to 10 years for a grid connection, often at nodes with spare capacity most of the day. A flexible connection lets you say yes now: your customer gets extra capacity almost all the time and flexes down to a firm level only during short local peaks. Deloitte and Agora Energiewende estimate that 120 flexible hours a year from data centers would avoid 4 GW of new peak capacity. Plexigrid's digital twin shows, node by node and hour by hour, where that flexibility is safe. Some of the world's largest grid operators already run it.

Before a utility can connect a new data center, EV fleet or factory, it has to answer one question: can the grid take it? Most still answer with a static hosting capacity map, rarely updated and built on worst-case assumptions. But the distribution grid changes every hour. Plexigrid's physics-informed AI digital twin makes that map a living one. It updates as the grid changes, forecasts every feeder in real time, intraday, day-ahead and seasonally, and flags risk before a limit is hit, even where data is incomplete. See where your grid can take more, before you say yes.

Electricity grids are becoming decentralised, digital and dynamic, and the tools that run them were built for none of that. In episode 244 of the Redefining Energy podcast, Alberto Méndez Rebollo, co-founder and CEO of Plexigrid, explains why the grid is broken and why it needs a new intelligence layer: real-time digital twins of the low-voltage grid, flexibility as an everyday operational tool, and hosting capacity that updates as the grid does rather than once a year. A conversation for anyone who plans, operates or invests in the grid.

Enlit Europe 2026 gathers the people deciding how grids get built, run and paid for. Plexigrid will be at Messe Wien, 10 to 12 November, stand A.e30. Come and see the intelligence layer for the low-voltage grid: a physics-informed AI digital twin that gives utilities visibility of every node, turns hosting capacity into a living resource and lets a new data center, EV fleet or factory connect with certainty instead of worst case assumptions. Book a slot with the team before Vienna and we will have your questions ready.

Marzo de 2027: se abren las solicitudes de permisos de acceso flexible tipo 0 y 1. ¿Tu distribuidora ya tiene el sistema para gestionarlos? Cada permiso es potencia que tendrás que planificar con cálculos nudo a nudo, supervisar, gestionar y reportar. En Plexigrid, la gestión de la flexibilidad no es nueva. Ya la aplicamos con algunos de los mayores operadores de red del mundo: visibilidad de cada nudo, planificación de la capacidad y flexibilidad trazable. Tipos 0, 1 y 2. Llega a marzo preparado. Hablemos ahora.
