Sometimes you just want to see your data differently, without exporting a CSV or building a report from scratch. In this example, Texture makes it easy to group meters by ZIP code and see where they’re concentrated across a service territory. It’s a simple exercise, and that’s the point. Organize data visually, save the board, and share it with your team -- in seconds, not hours.

Your meters can tell you more than what’s happening at the meter. Where is voltage outside expected limits? Which meters have stopped reporting? Which transformers are approaching rated capacity? Texture brings meter telemetry into its grid context, so utility teams can investigate conditions, proactively monitor, and estimate transformer loading from downstream meter data.

We’re thrilled to see the momentum growing on CommonGrid! 41 contributors have already joined CommonGrid, several open source changes have come in, and the phenomenal feedback we’ve heard from people across the industry has meant so much to our team. Thank you to everyone who has jumped in to share their knowledge. Anyone can contribute, and the data is free to use under an open license. Come explore at commongrid.info

Texture's heading to the San Francisco Bay Area this week for VGIC's EVolve conference. EVolve is VGIC's annual conference on managed charging and vehicle-to-grid programs. Texture connects grid data like AMI, GIS, SCADA, and device data into one model that utilities can actually work from, including the EVs and chargers showing up behind the meter. @VictorQuinn and Jes Hudgins will be there for the full two days. If you’ll be there, let's find time to talk. Learn more: vgicouncil.org/2026-evolve

EVs and other distributed energy resources are showing up behind the meter faster than utility records can keep track of. On September 30 at 1 PM ET, we're walking through how Texture turns existing AMI data into an actionable DER map, helping teams identify likely assets, verify what's connected, and plan around it.

Today we're releasing CommonGrid, an open-source registry of the US power grid that’s connected, community-maintained, and ready to use. Until now, understanding the full grid meant piecing it together from hundreds of separately-maintained public sources. CommonGrid connects complex data from across the grid into one model with open APIs, community moderation, and a public changelog. "No single company can keep an accurate model of the U.S. grid on its own," @victorquinn, Co-founder and CTO of Texture, shares. "So we borrowed the model that works for Wikipedia, anyone can propose a change, and every change carries its source and its history." We're not the first to take this on, and we want to recognize the projects that pushed this space forward before we got here, innovators like Map Your Grid, OpenGridWorks, and gridstatus library from @grid_status, among them. The grid is shared infrastructure. Understanding how it's put together should be shared, too. Read the full announcement: texturehq.com/press/commongr…

Sanjiv Sanghavi is heading to the Climate Capital Summit this week, speaking on the panel "Utility 2.0: Turning the Grid to Internet" with Devrim Celal, Kareem Dabbagh, and Shounok Sinha, moderated by Jon Healy on Sept 24 at 3:50 PM.

Vermont Electric Cooperative has returned over $400,000 in transmission and capacity savings to its 33,000 members since 2021 through a multi-OEM residential battery program built on Texture. Read the full case study: texturehq.com/customers/verm… #DistributedEnergy #Cooperatives

We're headed to the Rocky Mountain Utility Exchange next week! Connect with Texture September 21–24 in Vail, CO. Texture's Erik Roth and Cyril Brunner will be on-site all week. Catch Cyril speaking at the Sponsor Showcase Lightning Round on Tuesday, September 22nd at 4:30 PM.

Vehicle-grid integration is becoming one of the defining pieces of the energy transition, and it faces the same challenge as the rest of the grid. We're looking forward to working with VGIC to help make vehicle-grid integration practical and scalable as EV adoption accelerates.

A global grid technology provider brought in Texture as the single integration point for multiple OEM program operations, and we delivered: • 40+ MWh Battery capacity managed across the residential VPP • 2,000+ Batteries enrolled Read our case study: texturehq.com/customers/moun…

We'll be at the 20th Rocky Mountain Utility Exchange in Colorado, Sep. 21-24! Texture's Cyril Brunner Erik Roth will be there in person, and you can catch Cyril speaking at the Sponsor Showcase Lightning Round at 4:30 pm Tuesday.
