GridUnity has launched the GridUnity Intelligence Lab, an innovation facility designed to accelerate AI adoption for electrical grid management. The lab enables utilities and transmission operators to safely experiment with AI agents using real utility data whilst maintaining human oversight. The initiative centres on GALE AI, GridUnity's grid-native artificial intelligence system built on a master data model of the physical grid. GALE is pre-trained on grid standards and regulatory guidelines, providing trusted answers to utility teams managing load growth and interconnection complexity. The lab addresses the industry's need for rapid innovation as interconnection volumes surge and regulatory scrutiny intensifies. Unlike traditional research structures, it emphasises quick validation and deployment of practical solutions. GridUnity's customers, serving over half the US population, are joining as founding members.

Xcel Energy has chosen GridUnity's GridInterConnect for Transmission platform to manage large-generation interconnection projects for Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo), GridUnity announced today.
