Portfolio overview

Commissariat A L'energie Atomique ET AUX Energies Alternatives has been granted 4,218 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing Commissariat A L'energie Atomique ET AUX Energies Alternatives at rank #80 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 375 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 14.9 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01L (SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES NOT COVERED BY CLASS H10). As a Foreign Government, Commissariat A L'energie Atomique ET AUX Energies Alternatives is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Commissariat sits between Schlumberger Technology Corporation (4,606 patents, rank #76) and Konica Minolta, Inc. (4,158 patents, rank #84) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 67.6/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.

Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 1,909 grants, compared with 2,309 in the 2015–2019 window, a -17% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Government classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.

Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Commissariat A L'energie Atomique ET AUX Energies Alternatives's 14.9 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Commissariat A L'energie Atomique ET AUX Energies Alternatives against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio

Commissariat's 4,218 grants land it in the top 1% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.

  • Read that count against the largest US assignees before treating it as dominance - Commissariat ranks #80 of 50,000. Top 50 holders
  • Most of this portfolio concentrates in H01L - see who else leads that technology area. H01L leaders
  • Check what the four-part Innovation Score actually rewards before comparing it to another company. How the score works

Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
