Swissgrid selects Artelys Crystal Super Grid

25 September 2025

Artelys is pleased to announce that Swissgrid, the Swiss electricity Transmission System Operator (TSO), has selected Artelys Crystal Super Grid, our multi-energy simulation solution, to support their strategic planning and system analysis activities.
Swissgrid has selected Artelys to deliver an on-premises version of Artelys Crystal Super Grid. This state-of-the-art solution is dedidacted to simulating and optimising complex multi-energy systems, enabling analysts to precisely model and analyse interconnected energy systems.
Artelys Crystal Super Grid, a state-of-the-art solution dedicated to the analysis of multi-energy systems
By selecting Artelys Crystal Super Grid, our clients, equip themselves with a state-of-the-art solution, that can be fully integrated into their business workflow, covering use-cases such as:

  • The evaluation of the ability of an electricity system to meet demand in multiple climatic scenarios, for various configurations of planned and unplanned outage, via Monte-Carlo simulations, leveraging refined models notably of hydro reservoirs and of cascading hydro assets, and;
  • The evaluation of the benefits associated with developing further interconnection capacities with neighbouring countries, for various scenarios of development of generation capacities and flexibility solutions via NTC or flow-based analyses.
  • By leveraging the extensive set of key performance indicators integrated into the graphical user interface, our clients are able to efficiently and robustly analyse simulation results.

    Finally, thanks to the capacity expansion features of Artelys Crystal Super Grid, our clients are also able to design their own transition scenarios (e.g. with different electrification levels or different technological assumptions) and to evaluate adequacy levels and infrastructure projects in these new scenarios.

    A cutting-edge micro-services solution, integrated into business workflows
    Artelys Crystal Super Grid uses a proven and secure advanced micro-services architecture, based on Kubernetes, and relying on state-of-the-art tools and libraries. Our solution offers remote computing capabilities leveraging high performance computing (HPC) servers, can be triggered by secure APIs for process automation, and is connected to an object storage system for transparent data access and complex process management.

    Thanks to this state-of-the-art architecture, Artelys Crystal Super Grid can be integrated into our clients’ own IT infrastructure and will be able to import datasets from and export results into their own data platforms, speeding up studies and making processes more robust.

    Backed by years of developement by a team composed of operations research and artificial intelligence experts, Artelys Crystal Super Grid is based on advanced optimisation algorithms, enabling the execution of complex calculation workflows with optimal performance.

    Supercharging Optimisation: How Artelys, FICO and NVIDIA cuOpt Join Efforts to Scale Up Energy System Optimisation

    As energy system models continue to scale—reaching up to hundreds of millions of variables and constraints—traditional CPU-based optimisation solvers are hitting performance and memory bottlenecks. These increasingly complex models are essential for planning Europe’s energy transition, yet solving them within realistic timeframes has become a pressing challenge.
