Will further GE Vernova’s strategy to help utilities enhance operational systems with visual data and AI to provide situational intelligence and actionable insights.
Will help utilities reduce the probability of catastrophic events and enhance resiliency to rebuild and restore the grid.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (July 21, 2025) – GE Vernova Inc. (NYSE: GEV) and Alteia SAS today announced that GE Vernova has agreed to acquire Alteia SAS. Alteia is a France-based software company specializing in AI computer vision and machine learning, to bring visual intelligence into operations. The acquisition of Alteia is intended to further GE Vernova’s strategy to bolster AI capabilities and give utilities visual data solutions that provide situational intelligence and actionable insights.
GE Vernova’s GridOS® portfolio, within the Electrification Software business, helps utilities proactively plan for and operate the electric grid through disruptive events such as storms and wildfires that can impact the availability of reliable power to customers. GE Vernova currently offers Alteia’s software to customers through its GridOS® Visual Intelligence, which uses visual data and AI-enabled workflows to help utilities “see” the grid and assess damage, identify where vegetation should be trimmed, and inspect key assets along thousands of miles of electrical lines.
Through this acquisition, GridOS Visual Intelligence will further integrate visual data and operational data from core systems, like Advanced Distribution Management Software, to take action on the data and help utilities “see and sense” the grid, providing an enhanced level of situational awareness. Continued advancements of the AI-workflows will build on the insights delivered to help utilities reduce the probability of catastrophic events and enhance resiliency with expedited damage assessments to rebuild and restore the grid.
Scott Reese, CEO of GE Vernova’s Electrification Software business, said: “With this acquisition, we are excited to increase our investment in a critical element of our GridOS offering. Together with the Alteia team, whose expertise will help to advance our AI- and data-centric vision for GridOS, GE Vernova will be able to solve for critical pain points that our utility customers face every day and help them use visual data and AI in an actionable way to prevent disruptions or restore power quickly. This acquisition aims to further solidify our position as a data and AI leader in grid orchestration software and pave the way for additional use cases that could enhance the visual precision needed for modern grid operations.”
Michael de Lagarde, CEO of Alteia SAS, said: “We started Alteia with the mission to simplify visual data integration and analysis for utilities, a vision that aligns perfectly with GE Vernova’s GridOS portfolio. This acquisition is more than just a strategic step – it enhances our ability to deliver cutting-edge solutions to our clients while accelerating our AI roadmap for smarter, more efficient infrastructure operations. At a broader level, Alteia and GE Vernova share a deep commitment to tackling the urgent challenge of building and maintaining more resilient infrastructure networks. That’s why we are incredibly proud to join forces with the company that has been powering the world from day one.”
The financial terms of the acquisition are not being disclosed. The transaction is expected to close on August 1, 2025.
