EMP grenades are a certification available for the infiltrator class costing 200 Certification Points to buy and 50 infantry resources per grenade. They disable the HUD, shields and any energy reserves of certain infantry(will decloak enemy infiltrators), with lesser effects farther out from the center of the explosion. They will also currently deshield a Heavy Assault if they are using their shield ability.
As of the release of GU03 there is speculation as to whether or not EMP grenades are bugged, as some players believe that EMP grenades should effect all classes. Currently they only effect Heavy Assaults and Infiltrators and do not have an effect on Light Assaults jets, Combat Medic's healing ability or Engineers repair tool.

EMP grenades are unique to thrown grenades that they explode upon impact rather than bouncing, making them very easy to aim. They do however have a timer and explode in the air if they don't hit anything. EMP grenades also have a large blast and will detonate quicker than standard Frag Grenades. Currently, EMP grenades have a line of sight issue, as an EMP grenade's blast radius can effect players through walls, this means that players effected through a wall will receive different effects comepared to someone who was in the blast radius with a line of sight to the grenade/blast directly.
A player who is hit by an EMP grenade through a wall will have their shield start to regenerate immediately, whereas a player who is hit by the full blast will have a delay on shield regeneration. But both players will still have their HUD affected in a similar manner depending on how close to the blast's center they are. Whether or not the EMP grenade is currently bugged, is unknown and there has not been a verification of this issue by SOE. EMP grenades are also meant to be able to de-activate deployed C4 and both types of mines.
Previous Versions
During beta and possibly other earlier versions of the game, EMP grenades would also affect vehicles, by disabling them and also by locking infantry weapons from firing.
