The verdict
Enel holds 79 US patents across 17 technology areas, rank #4,464 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Enel X North America, Inc. has been granted 79 US utility patents between 2019 and 2024, placing Enel X North America, Inc. at rank #4,464 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 17 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.6 claims per patent with primary concentration in G05B (CONTROL OR REGULATING SYSTEMS IN GENERAL; FUNCTIONAL ELEMENTS OF SUCH SYSTEMS; MONITORING OR TESTING ARRANGEMENTS FOR SUCH SYSTEMS OR ELEMENTS). As a US Corporation, Enel X North America, Inc. is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Enel sits between Createme Technologies Inc. (79 patents, rank #4,460) and Grand Mate Co., Ltd. (79 patents, rank #4,468) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 42.6/100 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 56 grants, compared with 23 in the 2015–2019 window, a +143% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. The US Corporation 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. Enel X North America, Inc.'s 19.6 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while concentration in 17 subclasses points to a focused technical program. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Enel X North America, Inc. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Enel's 79 grants land it in the top 30% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
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.
