ThinkLabs has raised $28 million USD ($39 million CAD) in a Series A round led by Energy Impact Partners to help power grids manage surging demand from AI data centres. Nvidia's venture fund NVentures and Edison International participated, alongside returning investors including GE Vernova. The Canadian-led, New York-based startup provides physics-informed AI software that creates digital twins of power grids, simulating scenarios to help operators maintain reliability and reduce outages. The platform reduces what would typically be a six-month, quarter-million-dollar study to under a day's analysis. Founded by former Toronto Hydro smart-grid department head Josh Wong, ThinkLabs spun out of GE Vernova in early 2024 with $6.8 million CAD in seed funding. The company will use the new capital to mature its product and expand features whilst focusing on the North American market.
Venture Global and Edison put LNG arbitration battle behind them. March 27, 2026, by Melisa Cavcic Against the backdrop of the geopolitical upheaval caused by the Middle East conflict, Venture Global, an American producer of liquefied natural gas (LNG) sourced from North American basins, has resolved its arbitration dispute with Edison regarding its LNG facility in Louisiana, United States. Venture Global and Edison have confirmed the signing of a commercial agreement for the settlement of the pending arbitration between the two companies concerning the Calcasieu Pass project, with completion expected by the end of Q2 2026, at which point the arbitration will be terminated. The duo claims that the agreement fully resolves the arbitration in its entirety. As part of the settlement, the two companies have agreed to the delivery of additional cargoes to Europe beyond those envisaged under the long-term contract, primarily to the Italian market, to support gas supplies. The first delivery in Italy is scheduled for May 2026 at the Adriatic LNG terminal. The agreement is described to represent a significant step in strengthening commercial cooperation between the parties, establishing a foundation for future deliveries in the context of the disruption caused by ongoing geopolitical events. Venture Global highlighted: "Both parties welcome this agreement, as it further consolidates long-term deliveries and enhances the commercial partnership between Venture Global and Edison which is an important foundational customer of the Calcasieu Pass project. "The parties look forward to continuing to work together to pursue Venture Global's mission of stabilizing global LNG/gas markets and to further consolidate Edison's role in guaranteeing the stability and security of Italy's energy supply." This settlement comes months after Venture Global lost its arbitration against BP over the delay in starting full commercial operations at the same LNG facility in Louisiana, following the win the U.S. firm secured in the arbitration process with Shell. Venture Global revealed the start of commercial operations at its Calcasieu Pass facility on April 15, 2025, representing a wait of nearly three years after shipping its first LNG cargo.

JPMorgan analyst Aidan Kelly raised the price target on Edison International to $74 from $66, maintaining a Neutral rating after updating models across the North American utilities group on 18 March 2026. The move follows mixed analyst sentiment. Earlier in March, Ladenburg downgraded Edison International to Sell from Neutral, citing concerns over anticipated adjustments to Southern California Edison's earned versus authorised returns in its 2029 rate case. Last month, Edison International reported Q4 earnings per share of $1.86, beating the $1.45 consensus estimate, with full-year 2025 revenue of $19.32 billion versus $18.45 billion expected. CEO Pedro Pizarro highlighted progress on grid hardening and wildfire mitigation efforts.
Morgan Stanley has raised its price target on Edison International to $68 from $61, whilst maintaining an Underweight rating. The firm updated targets across its utilities coverage, noting underperformance versus the S&P 500 this month. TD Cowen also lifted its price target to $83 from $71 with a Buy rating, following Edison's strong fourth-quarter results. The company reported Q4 earnings per share of $1.86, exceeding the $1.45 consensus, and full-year 2025 revenue of $19.32 billion versus $18.45 billion expected. Edison International, which distributes electricity across 50,000 square miles of California, has completed over 90% of its grid hardening effort, installing more than 7,000 miles of covered conductor in high fire risk areas. The company reaffirmed its 5–7% long-term growth target.
IND Technology, an Australian startup developing grid fault detection systems, has raised $50 million in venture funding co-led by US-based Angeleno Group and Energy Impact Partners. Virescent Ventures and Edison International also participated. Founded by RMIT professor Alan Wong after Victoria's 2009 Black Saturday bushfire, the company has developed sensors that detect electrical arcing from failing infrastructure by capturing radio-frequency signal changes. The technology identifies problems within a 10-metre range before they escalate into outages or fires. Despite running eight pilots in Victoria, IND Technology has secured no commercial deals in Australia. Instead, it focuses on US and European markets, where utilities in Pennsylvania, California, Portugal and Greece are buying. The company has sold 15,000 devices and claims to have prevented 500 fires globally.
