IP protection allows investment in innovative solution

Easy Smart Grid prepares ground for fruitful partnership by protecting know-how

Innovators invest time and money for better solutions. If successful, others will adopt them also, which is very useful to spread innovation quickly. However, it is important that investments can be earned back before everybody else copies the innovation. This is why intellectual property rights, or patents, have been introduced to protect and encourage innovation.
If innovations are simple, this also helps fast spreading. The concept of Easy Smart Grid is very simple as it combines two known principles in a new way. Therefore we aimed for patent protection from the start. Today we look for partners to invest in development or use of our technology, and wish to protect them from copycats. Of course, as it is in our interest to spread our technology widely, licences will be granted to anybody wishing to use it.
In January 2015, Easy Smart Grid has filed patents in Europe and the US, based on a positive examination report on the innovativeness of our technology. Thus we enable investment in a technology to trade electricity within a grid, and to implement decentral control within each device capable of providing flexibility.
