MiGrid is an open-source, enterprise-grade operating system designed to transform electric vehicle fleets from simple transportation assets into active, revenue-generating participants in the energy grid.
Our unified 11-layer platform spans from the physics of energy transfer to the tokenization of grid-supportive actions, enabling fleets to participate in wholesale energy markets, demand response programs, and Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) operations.
MiGrid is an open-source, vertically integrated operating system designed to bridge the gap between physical EV assets and digital energy markets. We enable fleets to turn parked vehicles into revenue-generating Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) through physics-verified, standards-compliant orchestration.
We do not trust the driver; we verify the physics.
- Verify the Physics: Every charging session is audited against a Physics Engine (L1) that compares energy dispensed vs. battery capacity with a strict
<15%variance threshold. - Unlock the Grid: We don't just consume energy; we manage it. Our stack is built for OpenADR 3.0 compliance, turning load shedding and price signals into automated fleet actions.
- Tokenize Value: Grid-supportive behaviors are measured, verified, and rewarded directly to the driver's wallet via our Token Bridge (L10).
MiGrid is built on a streamlined, high-precision architecture designed for the realities of critical infrastructure. Our engineering principles prioritize physics verification, low-latency data processing, and uncompromising security.
- Physics-First Verification (L1): We do not trust digital signals blindly. All energy transactions are validated against a proprietary Physics Engine that audits charging sessions using "Digital Twin" models to detect anomalies and enforce capacity limits.
- Real-Time, Low-Latency Data: The platform utilizes Redis for sub-millisecond state caching and Apache Kafka for event streaming, enabling real-time responsiveness for frequency regulation (<500ms) and high-frequency market bidding.
- Edge-to-Cloud Resilience: Our Edge Runtime ensures site-level orchestration and mesh networking continue seamlessly even without cloud connectivity ("The Fuse Rule"), supported by a Multi-Region Active-Active cloud deployment for global resilience.
We leverage a modern, cloud-native stack to ensure scalability and adherence to global energy standards:
- Infrastructure as Code: Fully containerized deployments via Docker and Kubernetes, managed with Terraform.
- Data Layer: TimescaleDB for high-fidelity time-series energy metrics and PostgreSQL for relational core data.
- Security & Compliance: Built on a Zero-Trust Architecture with mTLS everywhere. We strictly adhere to NERC CIP and IEC 62351 cybersecurity standards.
- Interoperability: Native support for OpenADR 3.0 (VEN), OCPP 2.1 (Native V2G/V2X), OCPP 2.0.1 (Legacy Smart Charging), and ISO 15118 (Plug & Charge).
The system is decoupled into eleven distinct functional planes to separate concerns between physics, markets, data science, and user experience.
