Alive and Smart Grids by Gorlan
We transform static grids into alive systems that learn, anticipate, and evolve.
We are Zillion, the open ecosystem of solutions for alive and smart grids by Gorlan. We develop modular technology, protected by Pronutec and sensed by Merytronic, that connects seamlessly with IT/OT systems, facilitating access to energy intelligence and electrifying the future of our society.
An increasingly alive grid
Power grids are no longer static; they evolve and can become overloaded due to the sustained increase in electricity demand, the widespread adoption of electric vehicles, and distributed generation. All this, combined with the need to reduce energy losses, drives the continuous improvement of network efficiency.
Today, for energy to flow reliably and with high quality, the grid needs:
Greater flexibility and resilience.
Insight into critical hotspots to optimize investments.
Intelligent management to enhance performance and safety.
Our Solution
We integrate what already exists and connect it with what is to come, enabling phased growth and building new capabilities with the lowest barriers. We work flexibly to adapt to any context, designing solutions that evolve with our customers and enabling more precise and secure decisions.

Solution ecosystem
We offer a modular solution ecosystem that adapts to your infrastructure, improving distribution network management — global, flexible, scalable, and fully integrable with existing utility systems.
Protected by Pronutec
We are the protection module of Zillion’s ecosystem of solutions for alive and smart grids. We ensure low voltage so that operations are predictable and efficient.
Sensed by Merytronic
We are the sensing and monitoring module of Zillion’s ecosystem of solutions for alive and smart grids. We provide real visibility at low voltage, measuring the pulse of the grid.
Protection and Sensorisation
We offer switching, protection, and sensing solutions designed to integrate into any low-voltage panel configuration, providing the most suitable option for each use case.
Our systems allow for the measurement of essential electrical parameters directly at the protection point, which simplifies the panel layout and enhances network visibility from the source.
Sensors can be installed both at the top and bottom of fuse-holder bases, and we offer products compatible with panels protected by either fuse bases or automatic circuit breakers.
Additionally, some solutions do not require electrical shutdowns, making field installation easier without service interruptions.
The range includes both compact and modular versions, designed for easy integration into third-party equipment, offering maximum flexibility without compromising advanced technical performance.

Processing and Communications
We develop robust data processing and communication solutions that centralise low-voltage signals, apply local logic, aggregate information, and transmit it securely to your IT/OT systems using standard, cyber-secure protocols.
Converting distributed readings into reliable operational decisions, with easy integration into any existing architecture.
We transform measurements into useful, real-time information: remote terminal units (RTU and multi-channel RTU), transformer monitoring (LVS), and service multimeters act as the field’s brain—storing, synchronising, and transmitting data for diagnostics and operation.
We speak the language of the network: Ethernet/Modbus TCP, RS485 (DLMS/HDLC), XML/web services, and cellular connectivity via 4G (through router), ensuring compatibility with SCADA and IoT/OT platforms.

Advanced Analytics
We bring intelligence directly to the point in the network where it is needed.
We capture electrical measurements, power quality data, and oscillography to make the invisible visible.
Deployment is fast and safe, no de-energisation or supply interruptions required, allowing action precisely when and where it matters.
With the advanced analytics of the Ariadna Smart IoT platform, we transform data into operational insights: detecting anomalies, losses, and meter tampering while prioritizing actions based on operational criteria.
It is the ideal solution for diagnostic campaigns, targeted audits, and incident support.
LV DNA
Automation
Automated low-voltage distribution panels enhance operational intelligence by incorporating electronic switches and digital communication.
These distribution panels allow for continuous monitoring of electrical parameters, predictive diagnostics, and remote-controlled switching operations. Their modular and open architecture is compatible with standard protocols such as Modbus, IEC 104, and MQTT, which facilitates interoperability with SCADA platforms and other energy management systems.
Additionally, built-in cybersecurity measures, self-diagnosis functions, and functional redundancy improve the overall resilience of the system.
Together, these advancements transform the low-voltage panels into an active node within an automated, scalable electrical infrastructure, ready to meet the demands of the smart grid.
