Grid Rails gives utilities, energy suppliers, OEMs, and VPP operators one place to understand, coordinate, and settle distributed energy resources.

EVs are power plants on wheels.
@MichaelGMarin explains how that capacity can support the grid, provided it can be coordinated across vehicles, suppliers, and systems.
GR brings those assets onto the network so participation can be measured and settled at the event level.

ComEd has received approval for a Scheduled Dispatch Virtual Power Plant program in Illinois, with the first phase expected online in 2027.
@MichaelGMarin spoke with @tdworldmag about what utilities need to make programs like this work.
Solar, batteries, EVs, and smart loads are already deployed across the grid. The challenge is connecting those assets, coordinating their response, measuring what they deliver, and compensating customers accurately.
That software layer is what allows distributed assets to operate as part of the grid rather than as isolated devices.

OpenVPP was the first real-world proving ground for the Grid Rails model.
The point was not only to enroll devices. It was to test whether distributed energy participation could move through a fuller operating loop: connection, coordination, measurement, and settlement.
That early execution helped validate the architecture now being commercialised through Grid Rails.
The proof points are already meaningful: approximately 600 EVs in fleet, 659 MWh orchestrated end-to-end, on-chain settlements completed, and per-event payouts under 2 seconds from event to payment.
@OpenVPP gave the model a live environment.
Grid Rails AI is now taking the settlement layer to market.

The USEA Power Sector Podcast, sponsored by @Uplight, connects with Michael Grasso, CEO and Founder of software-as-a-service provider @GridRailsAi.
#GridFlexibility #PowerSector #GridModernization
Founder and CEO Michal Grasso joined the USEA Power Sector Podcast to discuss Grid Rails, the role of distributed energy resources in strengthening the grid, and the need for real-time coordination and settlement as the power sector becomes more decentralized.
At Grid Rails, we believe the next phase of grid modernization requires turning flexible devices into actionable, measurable, and compensable grid assets.

Distributed energy needs to be part of the grid’s operating system.
EVs, chargers, batteries, HVAC, solar, and smart meters are capable of much more than sitting at the edge. But many of these devices still do not actively participate in grid programs.
Grid Rails helps bring them onto the network as programmable market participants.
The platform gives operators a way to see what is connected, coordinate participation, measure what happened, and settle the contribution at the event level.
That is how distributed devices move from untapped capacity to active grid participation.

EVs are becoming one of the grid’s most important flexible assets.
The challenge is not just adding more EVs. It is coordinating when they charge, how they respond to grid signals, and how participants get compensated.
That requires visibility, control, and real-time settlement across distributed energy assets.
This is the infrastructure layer Grid Rails is building.

As society electrifies, smart energy devices in the home rarely communicate with each other, let alone the electric grid.
Grid Rails is building the energy and financial rails for a consumer-driven energy economy.
Where devices across any manufacturer work together, first on the home, and then back to the electric grid.
Nice shout out from Enlit for @GridRailsAi market entry and the growing demand for Virtual Power Plants.
