Company profile

researched Sep 2026

FelixFusion (branded "Felix") develops grid interconnection analytics for energy infrastructure and data center projects. The platform models connection points across a network to show available capacity, likely upgrade costs and constraints, with the aim of letting teams identify viable sites and assess interconnection risk before committing capital. The company states its tools produce study-grade results in minutes rather than months, with more than 97% accuracy against official study outcomes, 100% network coverage and over 500 connection points screened.

The product set includes Queue Signal, for siting and queue decisions; GridSim, aimed at letting large loads enter the interconnection queue and at evaluating the impact of competing projects; and GridHorizon, for portfolio-level development and interconnection decisions, including cost and capacity comparison across sites, queue positions and expansion options. Additional modules cover headroom assessment, using real-time substation capacity and upgrade cost data, and a local studies tool that toggles local queue assumptions across custom scenarios and re-runs full ISO study methodology.

FelixFusion also operates a public read API at api.felixfusion.ai, documented at docs.felixfusion.ai, that exposes power-market datasets, pricing locations and report-style outputs. API routes sit under /v1 with key-based authentication, and support dataset catalog and metadata lookup, timeseries queries with filtering, pagination, column selection and resampling, audits and update history, pricing node/hub/zone listings including nearby-location lookup, and public reports such as daily peak-load summaries. Documentation references ERCOT dataset families among supported markets.

Business model

FelixFusion sells software to energy infrastructure teams, with demo-led onboarding on a customer's target network, and additionally exposes its power-market data through a public read API with API-key authentication.

Traction

Company-reported figures include 100% network coverage, more than 500 connection points screened, results in minutes, and over 97% accuracy versus official study outcomes.

▸Full profile — market position, technology, go-to-market, geography

Market position

An early-stage, pre-seed company of roughly 1-10 employees working in energy analytics, interconnection and grid risk software.

The company positions its methodology as aligned with official system operator study practice and reports over 97% accuracy against official study outcomes across modeled connection points, with results returned in minutes and tooling built by engineers who have worked at ISOs, utilities and developers.

Technology

The platform models every connection point on a network using power flow models requested from the relevant ISO or utility, applying ISO- and utility-specific power analysis methodologies on top of those models. It uses the same analysis software as ISOs and utilities, including PowerGEM's TARA and Siemens PTI's PSS/E, and re-runs full ISO study methodology under user-defined queue scenarios. A public HTTP API provides dataset discovery, timeseries queries, pricing-location lookups and report outputs.

Go-to-market

Direct, demo-led sales to energy infrastructure, utility and ISO teams via "Book a Demo" requests, supported by self-serve developer documentation for its public API.

Generation developers, large-load and data center developers, transmission planning engineers, utility teams and ISOs, as well as investors and lenders evaluating power and infrastructure projects.

Geography

Listed locations include Roseville and Stanford, California, United States, and Concord/Vaughan, Ontario, Canada. Market coverage documented for the public API includes ERCOT.
