THE FRACTAL GRID DIFFERENCE

We’ve seen the future and it is NOW!

The Agile Fractal Grid a Platform of Platforms

Delivering tomorrow’s dreams – today!

Learn to thrive in a new networked world.

The world we know is decentralizing!  First the Internet, next the electric power supply, and now even the edge computing, next the power generation, and now even cyber-security itself!

The Driving Needs Behind The Agile Fractal Grid

Learn how to thrive in the new networked world.

GIGABIT COMMUNICATION

In order to participate in the new networked world you must have a connection with blistering broadband.

 

RESILIENT ELECTRICAL POWER

All life in the contemporary world now depends on maintaining a reliable and resilient supply of electric power.

COMPUTING AT THE EDGE

Some things requiring gracefulness and precision just cannot be done in the cloud.

FINANCIAL EXPANSION

Financial success  depends on the development of high paying skills more uniformly throughout our digital landscape.

COMPREHENSIVE CYBERSECURITY

The simplification of the rising cybersecurity complexities of the digital age lies in the decentralization of decision making to the edges.

Our Mission

The Agile Fractal Grid, Inc. (AFG) has created a platform to help rural and campus communities achieve energy security and meet renewable energy goals while also providing gigabit broadband access. Together with an accompanying economic development ecosystem, AFG can help deploy clusters of microgrids into a system of systems to behave like a utility, with the ability to participate in grid resiliency services and energy markets at scale.

Unlike competing models, AFG’s solution includes:

  • A real-time mechanism for distributing the control of electric power to the edges of the grid driven by local and regional decision support systems
  • Multi-tiered energy optimization and smart distribution management to allow profitable participation in grid reliability services and the energy imbalance markets
  • Reliable, resilient, and islandable services enabled by the deployment of an accompanying gigabit broadband wired and wireless infrastructure
  • End-to-end military-grade cybersecurity with 24/7 managed detection and response to thwart threat actors
  • Business models and ecosystem of technologies, service providers, and revenue sources to launch and sustain operations

At present, after nearly a decade of developing and driving a Community of Practice that includes dozens of organizations and hundreds of contributors, AFG is launching its platform system in southern California, the Midwest, and other locations worldwide.

OUR SERVICES

 

COMMUNICATION AS A SERVICE

As a wholesale provider of the Infrastructure as a service offering to carriers, ISPs, IoT service providers, utilities, and industries, AFG is the MORAN managed service provider of local gigabyte access service. We have accompanying OSS and BSS support and performance assurance services for orchestrating and managing use of the shared access infrastructure.

 

ENERGY AS A SERVICE

We are the wholesale provider and system integrator for microgrid optimization, modeling, and managed service offering. This includes utility, community, campus, and building decentralized power management.

 

EDGE COMPUTING AS A SERVICE

We are a managed service provider of edge-based computing infrastructure: edge pods for compute, storage, and bandwidth.  Edges include macrocell towers, electric substations, and campus management systems.

 

SECURITY AS A SERVICE

We provide cybersecurity and ongoing managed services of IT and OT systems, commercial enterprises, and operations end to end and at all levels. SECaaS (Security as a Service) is offered to microgrid owner/operators, utilities, and military bases.. The SECaaS offering can be bundled with other AFG offerings such as CaaS (Communications as a Service), and EaaS (Energy as a Service). SECaaS includes Security Operations Center as a Service elements including monitoring, management analysis, and response.

The Four Tiers to the National Solution

Microgrids | Campus Complexes  | Regional Centers | National Centers 


THE AGILE FRACTAL GRID

Each microgrid operates autonomously when needed,
and operates as a team when connected.

 

THE AGILE FRACTAL GRID APPROACH

Step One – Design a real-time mechanism for distributing the control of the electric power to the edges of the grid as opposed to relying totally on the centralized hierarchical system which originated in the last hundred years.

Step Two – Create a digital marketplace – a platform of platforms – integrating the various applications that are used to  operate every aspect of the participating electric utilities. This includes any participating provider of any kind of service using the broadband infrastructure.

Step Three – Implement and create a cybersecurity system for the end to end industrial types of processing.

Step Four – Create a wholesale provider of training and education services for the new network world in which we live.
