Capture every signal
From rigs and refineries to substations and smart meters, modern energy networks demand continuous, high-fidelity capture at scale. InfluxDB ingests millions of points per second with nanosecond precision, ensuring every fluctuation, fault, and forecast input is available for analysis.
Operators can query across billions of records to detect anomalies, balance supply and demand, and maintain grid stability where uptime and efficiency are critical.
InfluxDB 3 is built for energy and utility workloads
Massive Ingestion Throughput
Ingest millions of unique series per second from sensors, IoT devices, and OT protocols (MQTT, Modbus, OPC-UA, and more) to monitor power quality, renewable integration, and load balancing.
Real-Time Analytics
Query millions of series in <10ms to enable demand forecasting, automated fault response, and grid stabilization.
Unified operational visibility
Bring together data across assets to give operators a single source of truth so they can track performance, spot anomalies, and act fast to prevent failures and outages.
Predictive maintenance at scale
Anticipate failures before they happen. Analyze high-frequency telemetry to extend asset lifecycles, reduce downtime, and keep critical infrastructure online.
Accelerate the energy transition
Support renewable integration, distributed energy resources, and smart grid modernization while reducing carbon footprint, enhancing safety, and enabling digital twins for more resilient infrastructure.
Energy and utilities require real-time, resilient systems
InfluxDB goes beyond storage and query—it gives energy and utility teams the infrastructure to act on their telemetry. Process data at the edge, retain massive volumes cost-effectively, and keep it accessible for real-time analysis. Identify grid instability early, predict equipment failures, optimize renewable integration, and act instantly across critical infrastructure, while ensuring reliability, efficiency, and resilience.
Predictive Maintenance
at Global Scale
Siemens Energy uses InfluxDB to monitor 23,000 battery modules across 70+ sites, analyzing billions of high-frequency sensor readings in real-time to ensure quality, prevent downtime, and keep production running anywhere in the world.
