From Data to Decisions

Four Layers of Intelligence

Grid frequency is the heartbeat of the European power system. At exactly 50.000 Hz, supply matches demand. When a power plant trips or 3 GW of offshore wind drops in an hour, frequency tells you first — before market prices, before TSO alerts, before the news.

We combine Fraunhofer ISE frequency data, ENTSO-E generation/load context, TSO balancing activation from Netztransparenz and Elia, and Open-Meteo weather — then use statistical algorithms and Quasar AI to explain not just what happened, but why.

Grid Pulse Reports

The free summary gives you the headlines. Grid Pulse is the full weekly briefing: every stress event traced to wind drop-offs, generation trips, or cross-border imbalances, statistical distributions that show whether the grid is tightening, and a 7-day outlook of expected frequency conditions.

Built for battery operators sizing arbitrage windows, traders watching balancing markets, grid engineers tracking FCR activation, and analysts who need evidence-backed frequency intelligence — not raw data dumps.
