Smart grid companies provide the hardware and software that digitize electricity networks, including sensors, smart meters, automation and grid management systems. Buyers include utilities, grid operators and large energy users. Vendors are listed A–Z with no scores or rankings; see our methodology for how vendors are included.
Ranked by verified data once available. Until then companies are shown A–Z. Paid placements are labeled Sponsored and never change the order.
A smart grid uses digital communication, sensors and automation to monitor and manage how electricity flows from generation to consumers.
An energy management system is software, often with meters and controls, that monitors and optimizes energy use across buildings or sites. Smart grid technology can feed it real-time data.
Check interoperability with your existing systems and standards, cybersecurity practices, scalability, and the vendor's deployment and support experience.
