The Faraday Grid is an autonomous, responsive, electrical meta-network, agnostic to generation and consumption, with its own inertia, enabling more productive, resilient and stable electricity transfer.

The Faraday Grid substantially enables the diffusion of renewable energy by directly increasing the carrying capacity of the energy system, it does so at no additional cost.

The Faraday Grid provides inertia and primary frequency response to maintain stability, and allows horizontal and vertical energy transfer.

Autonomously and continuously adapting to variations throughout the network the system maintains an optimal equilibrium functioning as an emergent order.

Developed as fit-for-purpose technology in direct response to the pressing need for electricity network modernisation and tackling the energy trilemma
Replacement drop in technology for existing hardware without the need for additional complex expensive systems
Increasing stability by expanding the scope of the traditional grid to include generation and consumption
Directly addresses volatility introduced into the system by renewable energy
Maintains a higher level of stability and efficiency under a wider range of operating conditions.
