GE Vernova’s integration of Alteia’s software into GridOS Visual Intelligence will give utilities AI-powered visual tools for situational awareness and actionable insights.
GE Vernova acquired Alteia SAS, a France-based software company specializing in AI computer vision and machine learning, to bolster its AI capabilities and give utilities visual data solutions that provide situational intelligence and actionable insights.
“With this acquisition, we are excited to increase our investment in a critical element of our GridOS offering,” said Scott Reese, CEO Electrification Software at GE Vernova. “Together with the Alteia team, whose expertise will help to advance our AI- and data-centric vision for GridOS, GE Vernova will be able to solve for critical pain points that our utility customers face every day and help them use visual data and AI in an actionable way to prevent disruptions or restore power quickly. This acquisition aims to further solidify our position as a data and AI leader in grid orchestration software and pave the way for additional use cases that could enhance the visual precision needed for modern grid operations.”
GE Vernova’s GridOS portfolio helps utilities plan for and operate the electric grid through disruptive events like storms and wildfires. GE Vernova already offers Alteia’s software to customers through its GridOS Visual Intelligence. It uses visual data and AI-enabled workflows to help utilities:
This acquisition further integrates visual and operational data into GridOS Visual Intelligence from core systems to provide an enhanced level of situational awareness. Continued advancements for AI-workflows will build on the insights delivered to help utilities reduce the probability of catastrophic events and enhance resiliency with expedited damage assessments to rebuild and restore the grid.

GE Vernova’s aero units provide the flexibility and reliability of efficient jet engines. They can ramp up and down rapidly and have low emissions that is further reduced by SCR technology, producing 90% lower emissions than traditional gas or diesel-powered reciprocating engines with little to no methane slip.
“This project clearly illustrates our ability to provide the right solutions for data centers and power applications of all sizes and scales,” said Pablo Koziner, GE Vernova’s Chief Commercial and Operations Officer. “From a single aero unit producing approximately 35 MW to this 29-unit project, to our HA heavy-duty gas turbines to small modular nuclear reactors, we have the full suite of generation options to help meet today’s and tomorrow’s energy needs.”
