Managing Partner at Gupta Smart Energy - Putting network resilience at the top of the agenda for water utilities, DNOs and manufacturing to cope with the increasing demands of EVs and renewables.
Before being approached by innovation scouts from Oz, as a possible scale-up, vendor plus investment target, we had not considered entering the Dutch Power Distribution market to assist Alliander to transition to a more efficient, customer centric DNO/DSO by helping their grid become more resilient. These smart "Sons of Skippy" sussed from afar that our Norwegian electromagnetic power quality technology was a suitable candidate solution for Alliander who underpin the Dutch power transmission system. Now we are raring to go and to explore how we might be able to assist The Netherlands' power eco-system that is rich in renewables, like Norway, Scotland, China & Denmark. Our technology corrects voltage imbalance and harmful harmonics up to the 100th harmonic, Ultra and Supra Harmonics in real time, while sampling and relaying up to 4 million bits of power quality data a second. So two new DNO business opportunities for us, one in the UK and possibly one in the Netherlands.

So here I am, back in Amsterdam, reflecting on yesterday's incredible FastTrack event for Alliander's #Powered program in London. 🇬🇧 The spirit of innovation and collaboration was thriving! In true startup spirit, we ran ahead of schedule, then we ran behind and in the end, we finished perfectly on time. Looking back, we saw 9 amazing startups that are making a difference in the Energy Transition. Their determination and efforts to attend underscored the passionate spirit that, in my eyes, defines the startup ecosystem. The sun was shining in London, and so were the startups as they presented their cutting-edge solutions. I'm grateful to everyone who contributed to making the day a resounding success. A special thanks to Robert van der Heijden and the rest of the Alliander team for their support, engagement, and energy. Let's continue to celebrate these moments of connection and innovation. Here's to shining a light on the path toward a more sustainable energy future together. #Powered #corporatestartupcollaboration #openinnovation #Innovation #London #energytransition #energy Gridcog, Neuville Grid Data, OrxaGrid Ltd, Gupta Smart Energy, Advanced Infrastructure, SMPnet, Anqalab ⚡️, Allye, Electron Alliander, Startupbootcamp, Leonie Boelens, Tim van Gemert, Marius Groen, Bob Lucassen, Haike van de Vegte, Robert van der Hidde, Frits Wattjes, Imke de Man, Ferdinand Coster, Wilson R., Emma den Hond
