GE Vernova has introduced GridOS Data Fabric as part of its GridOS software portfolio for accessing and virtualizing distributed data from multiple sources.
GridOS Data Fabric is claimed to be a first in grid orchestration, using data federation to access distributed data, combining and virtualizing multiple datasets, and across transmission, distribution, edge, and information technology. Enables you to create a unified view across your grid ecosystem. and the application of operational technology.
The grid allows grid operators to discover, manage, and utilize large amounts of highly distributed data from multiple sources to improve and make faster decisions while adjusting the grid in real time. You will be able to.
“Energy data plays a critical role in enabling a more efficient power grid. Utilities can effectively automate grid operations and build systems built to meet future electrification needs. We need to connect energy data from across the grid ecosystem to orchestrate a more intelligent, secure and resilient grid,” said Mahesh Sudhakaran, General Manager, Grid Software Business, GE Vernova .

“By leveraging technology that leverages energy data, AI, and machine learning, utilities can move quickly to meet demand while addressing renewable energy management and electrification challenges.”
GridOS Strategy is a modular, configurable, data-driven software designed to orchestrate a more sustainable energy grid and help utilities keep pace with the energy transition, according to a statement from GE Vernova. The focus is on portfolios.
The announcement of GridOS Data Fabric follows GE Vernova’s acquisition of Greenbird Integration Technology and is the first major addition since the launch of GridOS a year ago, which also includes GridOS Connect.
GridOS Connect is an energy data integration engine that is a key component of the federated grid data fabric and feeds the system with continuously updated data sets. This information has traditionally been difficult for utilities to compile and analyze.
Itron collaboration
Along with this release, GE Vernova also announced a partnership with Itron. Itron aims to leverage GridOS Data Fabric to connect grid operations and grid edge data from sources such as residential solar and electric vehicles.
Don Reeves, senior vice president of outcomes at Itron, said a critical component of GridOS Data Fabric software connects and integrates data to make more accurate, real-time decisions and build reliable and resilient grids. It is said that it is a function that realizes.
“The data exchanged with Itron’s Grid Edge Intelligence solution provides new insights to train and power AI and machine learning applications that promote grid stability and help automate key aspects of grid operations. Offers.”
