Digital Smart Group

What Digital Smart Group does

Digital Smart Group (DSG) is a Barcelona-headquartered, privately held solutions integrator founded in 2008 that delivers technology products and services for the digital transformation of energy, industrial, and critical infrastructure operators. The company is the commercial brand for Digital Smart Solutions SL, a Spanish Sociedad Limitada (registry ESB67324608), with an additional UK office.

The core offering bundles multi-vendor hardware, software, and services into bespoke solutions for utilities and industrial customers. The product portfolio spans IEC61850 digital grid equipment (protection relays, HV/LV transformers, capacitors, reactors), industrial networking and SCADA (RTUs, Industrial Ethernet, protocol converters), IIoT and monitoring systems (predictive maintenance, condition-based maintenance, transformer diagnostics, fault detectors), OT cybersecurity (IED access control, anomaly detection, OT SOC), and energy efficiency and storage (smart video surveillance, energy storage systems, HV cables and connectors). DSG achieves this breadth by acting as an integrator of more than 20 tier-1 OEM technologies from partners such as GE Grid Solutions, Siemens (MindSphere), Cisco, SEL, Hitachi Energy, Phoenix Contact, Radiflow, and Sentry OT, and by localizing configurations to customer-specific regulations and operational environments.

DSG operates an enterprise field sales motion with direct engagement (contact form, email, phone) targeting utilities, industrial operators, and infrastructure providers, complemented by its channel partner network. Revenue is generated from three streams: hardware sales of integrated technology products, professional services for bespoke solution design and integration, and managed services covering predictive maintenance, condition-based monitoring, and ongoing support. The customer base includes a roster of European enterprise logos such as Iberdrola, Enel, Endesa, EDP, Fingrid, Veolia, AENA, Hitachi Energy, Siemens Energy, and Caverion. In 2026 the company extended into AI infrastructure services through Digital Smart AI, offering AI and GPU rental solutions.
