What EVUlution AG does

EVUlution AG, founded on January 30, 2020, and headquartered in Landquart, Canton Graubünden, Switzerland, develops and operates a modular software and hardware platform for intelligent distribution grid management. The company is privately held and owned by seven Swiss energy utilities — Repower, EWN, LKW, SN Energie, Arbon Energie, EWJR, and ewz (joined 2022) — who also serve as anchor customers and co-developers. EVUlution's portfolio centers on five interconnected products: SMARTPOWER, a gateway-based intelligent metering, regulation, and control system (iMRS) that provides real-time smart metering with millisecond response times; ENERGYBOARD, a white-label customer portal available on web and native mobile apps (iOS/Android) delivering live data visualization, ZEV management, and an AI-driven energy assistant; GRIDCONTROL, a digital-twin-based platform for real-time distribution network monitoring and active congestion management; EASYASSET, a digital asset and maintenance management platform with W12 certification for drinking water facilities; and SMARTFLEX, a modular flexibility management suite covering monitoring, scheduling, automated control, and market-oriented forecasting. The technology stack integrates protocols such as IEC 61850 and MQTT, supports four communication variants (Broadband-PLC, LTE/Mobile, Fiber, Ethernet), and connects to the innosolvenergy meter-to-cash platform and Venios grid management software.

Core offering

EVUlution AG develops and sells a modular software-and-gateway platform for intelligent distribution grid management, targeting Swiss energy utilities. Its offering combines SMARTPOWER (gateway-based real-time smart metering/iMRS), GRIDCONTROL (digital twin network monitoring), SMARTFLEX (flexibility optimization), EASYASSET (asset and maintenance management), and ENERGYBOARD (white-label customer portal with mobile apps), delivered as SaaS subscriptions, gateway hardware, and implementation services.

Product overview

EVUlution AG offers a modular platform-plus-products architecture for intelligent distribution grid management. The five core products are: SMARTPOWER (gateway-based smart metering/iMRS system with real-time flexibility management), EASYASSET (digital asset and maintenance management platform), ENERGYBOARD (white-label customer portal with live data, flexibility integration, and energy assistant), GRIDCONTROL (real-time grid monitoring platform based on digital twin), and SMARTFLEX (modular flexibility management solution with five sub-modules). These products are designed to interconnect: SMARTPOWER provides the metering infrastructure foundation, GRIDCONTROL enables grid visualization, SMARTFLEX optimizes flexibility deployment, and ENERGYBOARD serves as the customer-facing interface. All products share a modular architecture and are marketed to Swiss energy utilities.

• GreenCom Networks: European energy IoT platform enabling utilities to manage distributed energy resources, customer engagement, and flexibility. Comparable in layering flexibility management and customer-facing tools for distribution utilities.

Direct peers

• Kamstrup: Danish smart metering and grid analytics specialist focused on electricity, heat, and water utilities. Comparable in offering smart meters, AMI platforms, and distribution grid analytics for mid-sized European utilities.
• Landis+Gyr: Swiss-headquartered (Zug) global leader in smart metering, grid management, and EVUlution's most direct domestic competitor. Both target utility distribution grid digitalization with metering + AMI + grid edge intelligence stacks.
• Itron: US-listed global provider of smart metering, AMI, and grid management solutions for electric, gas, and water utilities. Directly comparable product portfolio covering metering endpoints, head-end systems, and distribution analytics.
• Sagemcom: French-headquartered provider of smart metering, energy management, and grid solutions to European utilities. Closely comparable in smart metering hardware + meter data management software to EVUlution's SMARTPOWER stack.

Broad incumbents

• Siemens Smart Infrastructure: Division of Siemens offering grid management software (Spectrum Power), metering, and distribution automation as part of a much broader industrial software portfolio. Competes with EVUlution in ADMS and grid edge intelligence at larger utilities.
• Hitachi Energy: Global grid solutions provider offering ADMS, asset performance, and distribution management software. Competes in the same distribution-grid digitalization category as GRIDCONTROL but with much broader portfolio and global scale.
• Schneider Electric (EcoStruxure for Utilities): Global energy management and automation incumbent with EcoStruxure platform serving utilities across grid operations, DERMS, and customer engagement. Direct overlap with EVUlution's distribution grid and customer portal offerings.
