GridBeyond opens new Global headquarters in Dublin to support global growth in energy optimisation

New Global HQ strengthens real-time trading and optimisation capabilities across 9 Electricity Market jurisdictions on 4 Continents.

GridBeyond, the global leader in AI-driven energy optimisation and market participation, today announced the opening of its new global headquarters in Dublin, marking a key milestone in the company’s continued international expansion.

The new facility will serve as the central hub for GridBeyond’s global operations, supporting activity across nine electricity market jurisdictions on 4 continents and enabling the optimisation of energy assets across industrial demand response, renewable, and storage portfolios.

A core feature of the new headquarters is its enhanced Trading Desk & Network Operations Centre (NOC), which provides real-time visibility and control across multiple energy markets and distributed energy assets. Operating 24/7, the centre plays a critical role in managing GridBeyond’s rapidly growing platform, which has contracted over 5GW to date, and supports over 550 clients across more than 1,400 sites and 55+ industries.

GridBeyond has seen significant growth in recent years, with a 100% increase in megawatts contracted in 2025 alone, reflecting increasing demand for flexible energy solutions as markets become more dynamic and complex.

The new headquarters has been designed to support both operational scale and future growth, while also creating an environment focused on collaboration, innovation, and employee wellbeing as the company continues to attract talent in Ireland and internationally.

Welcoming the announcement, Peter Burke, Minister for Enterprise, Tourism and Employment, said:

“GridBeyond is an excellent example of the ambition and capability of Irish companies operating at the forefront of the global energy transition. The opening of their new headquarters in Dublin reinforces Ireland’s position as a hub for innovation in energy and technology, and demonstrates how Irish SMEs are developing solutions with real global impact. Supporting companies like GridBeyond to start, scale and succeed internationally remains a key priority for Government.”

Michael Phelan, CEO and Co-Founder of GridBeyond, said:

“This new headquarters reflects the scale GridBeyond has reached as a global energy optimisation platform. Managing over 5GW of assets across multiple markets requires real-time intelligence, automation, and deep market expertise. Though we have local NOC within our Geos, this strengthening of our operations from Dublin allows us to support our clients more effectively while continuing to scale internationally.”

Jenny Melia, CEO, Enterprise Ireland, added:

“GridBeyond is a high-performing company that has built a strong reputation by consistently delivering value for its clients across international markets. Its continued growth is a testament to the strength of its technology, its commercial focus and the quality of its team. As energy systems become increasingly complex and data-driven, the ability to optimise assets in real time is becoming critical, and GridBeyond is well positioned in this space. Enterprise Ireland is delighted to support the company as it continues to scale globally.”

The opening event will include a tour of the facility, including the Network Operations Centre, offering insight into how GridBeyond monitors and optimises energy assets in real time across global markets.
