Welcome to Grid Energy
Grid Energy is an incremental management and automation game where every single watt powers scientific progress. Step into the shoes of an ambitious energy CEO and build a sprawling power network capable of energizing futuristic metropolises and capturing the raw energy of the stars.
From Hand Cranks to the Dyson Sphere
Start from scratch with rudimentary tools: turn a manual crank generator, let a hamster run in its wheel, test early circuits with a light bulb, and discover basic physics at your study desk.
Scale your production through transformative technological eras:
Fossil & Green Energies : Wind turbines, solar farms, coal-fired stations, and advanced multi-tier oil refineries.
Nuclear Fission & Fusion : Uranium extraction, enrichment centrifuges, nuclear reactors with realistic radioactive waste cooling cycles, and high-temp deuterium-plasma fusion.
Orbital Megastructures : Launch silos, solar sail swarms, and microwave orbital receivers channeling stellar power straight to your grid.
Finance Department & Live Stock Market
Why stop at selling electricity? Put your capital to work:
Dynamic Stock Trading : Trade shares of high-tech firms in real time, buy the dip, ride dividend waves, and cash out massive gains.
Term Deposits & Contracts : Lock your surplus funds into secure bonds or gamble on high-yield, volatile startup ventures.
R&D Corporate Investments : Unlock 19 specialized grants and technological upgrades providing permanent production multipliers.
Analysis Center & Prestige Mechanics
Feed matter into the Analysis Center laser chamber to earn Analysis Points (AP), unlocking omni-directional splitters and game-changing production buffs. Ready to start fresh? Liquidate your corporation to earn powerful, permanent prestige multipliers!
