Knowing where the grid will actually break.
Predicting outage counts ahead of incoming storms, so crews and equipment are staged where the grid will actually break.

Crews staged in the wrong place lose the storm
A Fortune 500 utility has to decide where to stage repair crews and equipment before a storm even makes landfall - once it hits, there's no time to reposition. Guess wrong about where outages will concentrate, and restoration is slower everywhere: crews too far from where the grid actually breaks, and customers waiting longer for power to come back.
Turning storm forecasts into a staging plan
NEXUS draws on its existing understanding of complex systems to predict outage counts ahead of incoming storms, giving grid operations a concrete number to plan against instead of a general sense of risk. That prediction feeds directly into where crews and equipment get staged, so resources are positioned ahead of the storm rather than reacting after it has already passed through.
Positioned before landfall
77%
accurate outage predictions
Crews positioned before the storm makes landfall: NEXUS's outage predictions were accurate 77% of the time, giving grid operations a real basis for staging decisions instead of a guess.
Faster restoration starts before the storm.
When crews are already close to where outages will happen, restoration starts sooner and customers spend less time without power. Getting the staging decision right ahead of the storm is worth more than reacting well after it hits.
