What is a Virtual Power Plant (VPP)?

A VPP is an aggregated network of DERs that can be remotely controlled and operated to balance the supply and demand of electricity on the grid. A VPP combines devices that store, generate, and shift electricity to help meet peak demand in place of a conventional power plant.

A Comprehensive Toolkit for Evolving in the New Energy Economy

AutoGrid is the recognized leader in VPP software, and our digital software technology platform is used around the world with over 7,600 MW of assets under contract across 17 countries.

Optimization Engine

Dynamically make decisions to balance supply and demand in real-time through instantaneous analysis of energy data.

Flexible Capacity

Aggregate diverse DERs into a single VPP that connects energy producers with utilities and grid operators to share capacity.

Grid Services

Operate on par with conventional peaker plants, but with much lower emissions, lower cost, and improved resiliency.

Open Protocols

Communicate with a wide range of devices and systems, without being locked into a specific technology or vendor.
