With just a few steps away from welcoming 2025, it’s time for… the 2024 year in review. For NET2GRID, this year was full of energy insights, smart meter data, energy disaggregation, and DER Intelligence. That is to say, business as usual. But there was more to it and here are some of the milestones and key takeaways of 2024 worth revisiting:
The year of NET2GRID EnergyAI™
If 2023 was defined by the AI surge and explosion, then 2024 was the year when AI got instilled into everyone’s consciousness, for good. This was also evident in the energy sector since the power of Energy AI was further recognized as the ultimate way to maximize sustainability, make energy greener, and prioritize energy efficiency across diverse industries. NET2GRID, however, was already ahead of the curve with NET2GRID EnergyAI™, the company’s AI-powered SaaS that turns residential energy data into detailed household energy profiles to boost customer engagement and provide valuable business intelligence. In 2024, the product’s name was updated and a new logo was introduced to better represent NET2GRID’s mission and the company’s cutting-edge, AI-driven technology.
Innovation is never out of fashion
Always committed to innovation through AI-powered solutions, NET2GRID became officially a definitive part of the AWS Clean Energy Accelerator 4.0 | generative AI edition and its 2024 cohort. The process involved 800 candidates, from 74 countries and, despite competition, NET2GRID managed to be one of the 21 companies selected. The AWS acceleration program focuses on the needs of enterprises that aim to accelerate their energy transition through emerging technologies and achieve their net zero goal and sustainability efforts. Additionally, NET2GRID has already integrated with its partner POWERCONNECT.AI to bring GenAI solutions to market.
A strong presence in the energy industry
Strengthening its global presence in 2024, NET2GRID attended an array of industry events, including exhibiting at DISTRIBUTECH 2024 in Orlando, FL, Enlit 2024 in Milan Italy, as well as CS Week 2024 in Fort Worth, TX, hosted by partner Accelerated Innovations.
Industry recognition
While continuing to contribute to the energy industry thanks to its cutting-edge analytics and energy insights, NET2GRID, in 2024, was referenced as a front-runner in the field by leading advisory firms within the energy sector, including Darcy Partners, Guidehouse Insights, and LCP Delta. The two white papers Edge analytics: Reshaping how data is processed and Optimizing DER grid planning with NET2GRID EnergyAI™ provide more insights into the diverse ways NET2GRID unlocks value from smart meter data.
Building bonds and empowering teams
2024 marked the third year in a row when NET2GRID got recognized as a Great Place to Work in both Greece and the Netherlands. Such a recognition highlights the company’s commitment to nurturing a supportive working environment and celebrating inclusivity. From the company’s trip to YMCA in Chalkidiki to organized activities like marathons, NET2GRIDers made time to enjoy moments of bliss and team building together.
Energized for a brighter future
To wrap it up, there is much to be grateful and proud of. Waving goodbye to 2024 invites a moment of gratitude for all the remarkable contributions of NET2GRID’s community: the partners, the customers, and the team. Because when acting together, the future of energy is not simply imagined but brought into existence. Here's to a new year full of energy!
