Renewables Go Virtual: Virtual Power Purchase Agreements & Virtual Power Plants

The event will showcase Virtual (or off-site) Power purchase agreements (PPAs), which the industrial, commercial, and public sectors are taking advantage of to support development of new clean energy while meeting sustainability goals – such as carbon neutrality or obtaining 100% of their energy from renewable sources, and reaping financial benefits at the same time.  We will also be discussing Virtual Power Plants (VPPs).  Most lithium-ion battery deployments today come in the form of giant, centralized battery plants. A virtual power plant is comprised of multiple (hundreds or even thousands) of batteries distributed within a grid (at businesses, schools, or even homes), but operate just like a one big system — charging up when demand and electricity rates are low and discharging when demand and prices are high.
