Virtual Power Plants are transforming how the modern grid operates by uniting distributed energy resources into a flexible, coordinated network. Paired with advanced battery storage, VPPs enhance reliability, unlock new revenue streams, and support deeper renewable integration. VPPs are an aggregation of distributed energy resources (DERs)—energy solutions such as solar and battery systems, smart thermostats, and electric vehicles installed at or close to homes. . What are virtual power plants and how do they work? A virtual power plant is a system of distributed energy resources—like rooftop solar panels, electric vehicle chargers, and smart water heaters—that work together to balance energy supply and demand on a large scale. economy rapidly electrifies to meet climate. .
