San Diego: GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) has expanded its Grid Automation portfolio with the launch of GridBeats™ APS (Automation and Protection System), a new solution aimed at helping utilities modernize substations and manage increasingly complex power grids.
Part of the GridBeats™ software-defined portfolio, the new system acts as a unified platform for protection and control applications within electrical substations. By leveraging GE Vernova’s patented hardware abstraction technology, GridBeats™ APS significantly reduces hardware requirements, device footprints, and cybersecurity complexity while maintaining high levels of reliability and performance.
