GRIDiant Want to Be the Brains of the Smart Grid

One of the most intriguing young companies is GRIDiant, which is relaunching itself at this week's DistribuTECH conference. Formerly known as Optimal Technologies, it has a new name, a new CEO and a new war chest. It is also putting together a collection of Smart Grid management tools and optimization applications.

At DistribuTECH the company will launch three new or updated products, and give a sneak preview of a half-dozen more.

· GRIDRecords, a data warehouse for combining information from GIS, SCADA, AMI and other sources

· GRIDView, a multipurpose dashboard for real-time operations, load analysis and planning

· GRIDFast, a unique optimization engine that contains GRIDiant’s secret sauce

GRIDiant has teamed with IBM for systems integration, KEMA for power system engineering and

Teradata for data warehousing.
