Grid Raven provides a detailed forecast of the ability of each power line to safely carry energy. This is made possible by our hyper-local weather prediction AI. With Dynamic Line Ratings the existing grid can safely handle, on average, one third more power, which significantly helps accelerate cheap, clean energy.
Fundamentally the maximum amount of energy that a power line can carry comes from the risk of overheating. Current flowing through the conductors heats up the wires and each wire has a maximum operating temperature. But the rate of cooling depends on outside conditions, such as air temperature and wind. So in cold and windy hours the same power lines can safely carry multiple times more energy. On an annual basis this additional benefit is an increase of roughly 30% of national grid capacity. Increasing the transmission grid by a third will accelerate clean energy by a decade.
Grid Raven predicts weather and especially wind with meter-scale accuracy. We cover the full network without leaving any blind spots and can operate under all weather conditions. Our solution does not depend on physical hardware, but works well with any sensors that have already been installed. We predict the future with precision.
The transition to clean energy requires strengthening the power grid. Grid Enhancing Technologies help bring the energy transition forward by a decade.
Our wind forecasts are 50% more accurate than the national forecast in Estonia and we are continually improving our model together with the weather service.
Our service level availability is 99.99%. Our solution does not depend on physical sensors out in the field, but can work seamlessly with installed devices.
Our licence covers your full network from the start. With Grid Raven you can implement AAR and DLR at your own pace.
