Virtual Power Plant software advancements are blazing new trails in the intelligent management of diverse portfolios of distributed energy resources (DERs) that can respond to the second-to-second supply and demand balancing needs of our power grids. Advancements are also balancing costs and benefits, serving a broad array of energy ecosystem stakeholders. This new white paper commissioned by Enbala and written by Navigant's Peter Asmus talks about how VPPs have evolved into solutions for a host of customer, utility and transmission system challenges and discusses the criteria for modern-day VPP success stories. Read about: - The success factors governing aggregation of DERs into grid-balancing VPPs
- New architectures for VPP expansion
- Physical VPP grid and market interaction
- VPPs and the energy cloud
