What this shows NAD's Innovation Score is 36.3/100 (top 47% 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.

Where NAD's grants concentrate

NAD Grid Corp is a focused PatentsView assignee: 6 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under Y02T (Climate Change Mitigation Technologies Related TO Transportation). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, NAD sits between Myriad Medical LLC and Nammu21, Inc..

NAD's three-year grant acceleration

NAD Grid Corp shows 3 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
