Energy Central Power Session: VPP Payoff Strategies for Scaling and Maximizing Returns

Virtual power plants (VPPs) have become a key resource in a utility’s power mix. According to the Ohm Analytics VPP Market Report, residential battery VPP capacity grew 153% year-over-year — the fastest growth of any technology segment tracked. And the potential still offers even more untapped capacity–only 45% of deployed residential battery capacity is actually enrolled in a VPP. Today, utilities are moving beyond VPP pilots to broader implementations that realize operational, regulatory compliance, and financial benefits. For example, as utilities face increasing loads and grid constraints, VPPs are often one of the shortest paths to meeting these needs.

In this exclusive Energy Central PowerSession, hear from thought leaders about their VPP journeys, successes, and lessons learned. Learn about adding diverse device types to a VPP program, integrating different programs into an enterprise VPP, and how incremental VPP adoption can be a strategy for success.
