A Global Team Modernizing the Grid
Who we are
envelio is an energy software company founded in 2017 in Cologne, Germany. Our mission is to accelerate the energy transition by helping electric utilities modernize grid planning, interconnection, and operations through digitalization. At the core of our work is the Intelligent Grid Platform, a solution designed to enhance efficiency, transparency, and scalability for distribution system operators and grid stakeholders.
In 2024, envelio expanded to the United States with a new office in Boston, strengthening our commitment to supporting utilities across North America.
We’re a global, mission-driven team passionate about building the future of the grid through collaboration, innovation, and purpose.
Our story
The idea for Envelio arose during our work in the field of energy system research at the Institute of High Voltage Technology at RWTH Aachen. All the founders wrote their dissertations in the field of “intelligent distribution grids.”
Throughout many research projects with grid operators, something became clear:
There is a lack of a scalable software platform for managing future grids, as the need to integrate more renewable energy sources and charging stations for electric vehicles increases.
Our vision
Achieving a power supply solely from renewable energy sources might seem like a long-term goal. However, in the not-so-distant future, millions of new solar panels, wind turbines, and charging stations will need to be integrated into our existing grids; the number of interconnection requests is already rising what feels like every day.
The need for process acceleration, infrastructure transformation, and rapid expansion comes on top of business as usual. Currently, distribution grid operators are not prepared to handle the scale and complexity of these changes efficiently.
This is exactly where we want to make our contribution. We strive to empower utilities not just to adapt to the future but to actively shape it. Our vision isn’t just a strategic decision; it’s what drives us every day and guides our interactions. By pioneering innovative solutions and fostering sustainable practices, we aim to help transform the energy landscape.
Technology
We are passionate about new technologies and state-of-the-art development tools. They enable us to react flexibly to changes and to continuously develop ourselves.
Trust
We’re passionate about new technologies and modern development tools. They allow us to stay flexible, adapt to change, and keep growing—both as individuals and as a team.
Ecology
As an award-winning technology company, we work on sustainable solutions every day—and bring those same values into our daily office life.
Our mission
We want to offer all actors a common dynamic platform for connecting renewable energies to the power grid — for efficient and digital energy data management. Only smart grids enable rapid grid integration of renewable energies. They are the prerequisite for achieving the energy transition quickly, easily, safely and cost-efficiently.
