AMP X

Amp

X delivers grid flexibility in renewable energy markets
of the grid itself ,” says Dr . Di Martino . “ The digital energy space is clearly one of the most disruptive , and it ’ s the one we ’ re trying to make a game-changing contribution to with Amp X .”
Dr . Di Martino describes Amp as an ‘ innovator ’ and a ‘ disruptor ’ as she outlines how the organisation has developed energy infrastructure for over 12 years , expanding its operational portfolio from solar energy applications to battery energy storage and wind . Amp recognised very early on that battery storage is an essential technology in the energy transition , but that realising the full potential benefits of investments would require highly efficient and responsive operational capabilities .
The formation of Amp X was a strategic response for monitoring , controlling and optimally dispatching energy assets across different markets and segments of the grid . Leveraging AI and ML capabilities , Amp X ’ s digital platform monitors the health and performance of different assets , and uses proprietary algorithms to gain insights into system activity , from grid-level infrastructure to individual behind-the-metre appliances and electric vehicle chargers .
Amp X has developed its robust predictive models to assess the impact of weather conditions on both the production of solar and wind energy and trends in demand , enabling the prediction of pricing and delivering optimised dispatch of battery storage assets .
