Smart meter simulation
Interval reads, register reads, and meter events for large populations, shaped like real AMI traffic.
Simulate everything
Grid Data Simulator Realistic utility data on demand — no utility required.
Grid Data Simulator generates the data a utility platform lives on: head-end meter traffic, SAP IS-U master data and events, SCADA telemetry, and market file feeds — configurable in a web client, delivered through the same interfaces a real utility would use.

Why simulate
Production-shaped data from day one
Real utility data is scarce, sensitive, and slow to obtain. Grid Data Simulator removes the dependency: every feed the platform consumes can be generated at scale, on schedule, and in its native wire format — so integration, testing, demos, and training never wait for a customer environment.
SAP IS-U simulation
An SAP EHP7-compatible module simulates master data and business processes — build SAP integrations without an SAP system.
SCADA telemetry
Simulated SCADA points and events exercise real-time pipelines and grid analytics.
Market & file feeds
ERCOT-style market files and CSV feeds reproduce the batch interfaces utilities actually exchange.
Protocol translator
A translation layer delivers simulator output in the exact wire formats target systems expect — including certificate-secured delivery.
Web control & automation
An Angular client configures scenarios and schedules; an OpenAPI-documented REST API automates them in CI.
Cloud-ready
Docker images and Terraform definitions stand the simulator up anywhere — laptop, data center, or cloud.
Family citizen
Registers with the Grid Data App Manager on startup, like every member of the family.
How it works
See it, end to end
Step 1
Define a scenario
Choose populations, consumption shapes, event patterns, and schedules in the web client — or script them via the API.
Step 2
Choose the feeds
Enable AMI, SAP, SCADA, or file-based outputs; the translator handles each target’s native format and security.
Step 3
Run at scale
Stream continuously or replay bursts — event storms, outages, gaps — at whatever rate the test demands.
Step 4
Measure downstream
Watch the platform ingest, validate, and serve — with the Testing Platform verifying the results.
Use cases
Where Grid Data Simulator earns its keep
Platform testing
The standard test harness for every GDMP release — continuous, realistic AMI data.
Performance & load proving
Scale simulated populations to establish ingestion and VEE throughput baselines before go-live.
Integration development
Build SAP, SCADA, and market integrations against faithful simulations instead of scarce test systems.
Sales demonstrations
Run data-rich demos of the whole family with no customer data and no external dependencies.
Training environments
Give analysts and operators a live-feeling system that never touches production.

Better together
Part of the Grid Data Family
Every family application shares one identity platform, one design system, one registration pattern, and one deployment path.
The primary consumer of simulated AMI and SAP data.
Runs its suites against simulator-fed environments.
Demonstrated end-to-end on simulated SCADA feeds.

A working demonstration takes thirty minutes — on our environment or yours, with realistic simulated data.
