Miami, FL, Jan. 5, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — NextNRG, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXXT), a leader in AI-driven energy solutions, announced today that its engineering team has published multiple peer-reviewed research papers throughout 2025. These publications validate the technical foundations of the company’s AI-driven grid intelligence platform, supporting its commercial deployment at scale across various sectors including healthcare, transportation, and utility infrastructures.
The timing of these publications aligns with NextNRG’s strategic expansion of AI-enabled microgrid and grid management systems, where forecasting accuracy, cyber resilience, and operational reliability are vital. The peer-reviewed research substantiates key elements of NextNRG’s Utility Operating System, encompassing forecasting engines, grid security analytics, and microgrid control software. Dr. Hugo Riggs, a senior engineer specializing in AI and machine learning at NextNRG, emphasized that the research is “built to translate directly into operational performance,” ensuring that methods are robust, repeatable, and scalable in real-world settings.
Research authored by NextNRG engineers, including Dr. Shahid Tufail and Dr. Riggs, has been published in notable technical forums such as Springer Nature conference proceedings. The studies address pressing challenges facing modern power systems, including demand forecasting accuracy, grid security, inverter fault detection, and renewable energy integration. Dr. Tufail, the lead author on several of these studies, stated that the consistent goal is to enhance forecasting accuracy, system reliability, and grid resilience across varying operational environments—critical factors for achieving widespread commercial adoption.
Key areas of focus in this research include improved short-term electricity demand forecasting using machine learning models, which aim to enhance dispatch decisions and cost efficiency in smart grids and microgrids. Additionally, the research explores the detection and classification of false data injection attacks in smart grids and solar photovoltaic systems to bolster cyber resilience and operational integrity. Comparative analyses of inverter fault-detection methodologies for grid-connected solar systems are also featured, aimed at improving asset reliability and reducing downtime. Furthermore, hybrid AI frameworks are discussed that enhance monitoring, fault detection, and anomaly classification in renewable and microgrid environments.
These peer-reviewed publications affirm the scientific and engineering basis for NextNRG’s commercial systems, mitigating execution risk for customers, infrastructure partners, and capital providers. The research promotes the deployment of practical intelligence and operational relevance, aligning with methodologies embedded in the company’s fielded technologies.
NextNRG integrates independently validated research into its product development, utilizing peer review and applied analysis to substantiate technical claims with reproducible results and rigorous evaluations, rather than marketing assertions. Alongside the published work, the engineering team is advancing research in photovoltaic-battery microgrids across various U.S. states, focusing on physics-aware deep-learning models for solar forecasting and adaptive control strategies for resilient microgrid dispatch. These ongoing efforts support NextNRG’s long-term product roadmap and its ambitions for large-scale infrastructure deployments.
“Customers and investors expect disciplined execution,” stated Michael D. Farkas, Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of NextNRG. “This body of peer-reviewed research demonstrates that our platform is built on validated science and engineered for real-world performance.”
