Invenia Labs uses machine learning, alongside economic and physical modelling, to find and implement solutions to the world’s most complex problems.

Currently based in Canada and the UK, Invenia uses machine learning to optimise electrical grids. The team improves these networks by participating directly in their planning process, reducing waste and inefficiencies, and lowering CO₂ emissions.
