Private AI, Inside Your Walls

Private AI for electric utilities runs on utility-controlled hardware so teams can use internal procedures, filings, market data, and other approved information without making an external AI platform the default home for sensitive work.

Request a private AI scoping call

Your team can search approved internal procedures, filings, and market information. The system runs on utility-controlled hardware and answers from your documents rather than the internet. The engagement defines the supported workflows and configures the system around your utility’s documents.

Potential workflows include load forecasting, energy market analysis, compliance writing, procedure lookup, and RTO summaries. Scope and test the selected tasks during the engagement. Document-search responses can include citations so staff can inspect the source material.

Why utilities start here

  • Unclear data boundaries. Staff may be experimenting before policy and technical controls are ready.
  • Scattered internal knowledge. The answer exists, but it is buried across procedures, manuals, reports, and shared drives.
  • Inconsistent workflows. Different teams use different tools and can reach different answers from the same body of information.
  • Outside-system dependence. Leadership wants useful AI capability without making an external platform the home for sensitive internal work.

How the engagement works

  1. Define the job. Tell us the use case, the people involved, and the information the system must work with.
  2. Set the boundaries. On the scoping call, we review the operating environment, access needs, data sensitivity, and practical constraints.
  3. Build to the specification. EPG configures the hardware and system around the approved use case.
  4. Deliver it into your environment. A Workstation ships ready for local data loading. Department and Enterprise systems are delivered as scoped installation engagements.

Intelligence Workstation

Intelligence Workstation — starting at $85,000.

One workstation, pre-loaded with workflows built around your actual procedures. Ninety days of support, up to three on-site visits. One-hour scoping call before purchase so we build it around what you actually need.

Department Intelligence Suite

For shared workflows across multiple teams. A scoped private AI environment designed around how departments need to find, interpret, and use internal information. Delivered as an installation engagement. Starting at $225,000.

Enterprise Intelligence Program

For utility-wide infrastructure and governance. Dedicated systems, access boundaries, and implementation planning for an organization-wide private AI program. Starting scope $450,000.

What a scoping call decides

The form is not a request for a generic demo. It gives EPG enough context to determine whether a private system fits the use case, what data boundaries matter, which tier is realistic, and what must be resolved before a proposal can be responsible.

Request a scoping call

Every system starts with a conversation. Tell us what the system must do, then choose a time that works.

After submitting, choose a discovery-call time in Calendly.

Build governance alongside the technology

Private infrastructure is only part of a responsible AI program. The Utility AI Governance & Operations Manual gives utility teams a practical framework for approved use, data boundaries, human review, records, vendor governance, and incident response.
