What this shows Innogy's Innovation Score is 35.5/100 (top 49% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Innogy?

Each dot is one of Innogy’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Innogy’s own 15.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 12.7 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Innogy's grants concentrate

Innogy Innovation GmbH is a focused PatentsView assignee: 20 CPC subclasses with 91.7% of grants classified under H04L (Transmission OF Digital Information, e.g. Telegraphic Communication). Peak complete grant year is 2021 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Innogy sits between Indus Biotech Private Limited and Innoven Energy, LLC.

Innogy's three-year grant acceleration

Innogy Innovation GmbH shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
