We take the friction out of electricity innovation.

Utility data should fuel innovation. But access has been limited until now, creating a major roadblock for energy innovators who need robust, real-time information to test and develop their ideas.

Your big idea.
Our big data.

Data is power. It enables new insights and empowers innovators to develop new products, processes, and services.

The problem? Access. Until now, utilities have not been setup to share their data. 

Plug-In Labs is changing that by providing safe, secure, and managed access to all Saint John Energy Smart Grid and system data.
