Future Grid was founded to solve one of the toughest challenges facing the energy industry: the explosion of data brought on by smart meters and the urgent need to turn billions of data points into actionable risk reduction.
This challenge intensifies as distributed energy resources (DER), intermittent renewables, and consumer-driven energy services add even more complexity to already data-heavy networks. Too much data and a lack of clarity have resulted in growing risks for safety and reliability, but also presented an opportunity to bring forth a solution that works alongside a rapidly evolving grid.
That’s why we built Compass™.
Compass™ exists to transform these vast quantities of complex data into clear, actionable insights in real-time; helping utilities detect, prioritize, and resolve faults in the safest and most cost-effective manner.
Setting the standard in real-time low-voltage analytics.
Future Grid is the leader in low-voltage grid analytics. Compass™, our signature software, has been proven on the world's most advanced energy grids, servicing 90% of Australia's network.
With the evolution of AI, we have incorporated game-changing features into the platform that enhance it's power.
As we expand continue to expand into the USA and Asia, our platform continues to set the standard for grid safety, reliability, and future-ready performance.
