What is a VPP?
What is a VPP as provided by ei360, and how does it function in terms of aggregating decentralized energy resources and distributing energy into the grid during peak demand?
A VPP is a sophisticated network of smaller energy-producing or storing devices that collectively serve the electricity grid. It operates by utilizing the ei360 platform to unify different storage systems, coordinating their collective energy for optimal distribution to the grid during times of peak demand.
Who can participate in a VPP?
Who can participate in a VPP provided by ei360, and what are the feasible business cases in the regulatory context

Why are VPPs important?
Why are VPPs important and how do they contribute to grid stability, efficiency, and electrification?
VPPs are crucial in rapidly harnessing renewable energy, maintaining grid stability, and decarbonization. By aggregating a diverse array of energy resources, including renewable sources like solar and wind, alongside traditional generators, VPPs can balance supply and demand dynamically. This capability helps mitigate fluctuations in energy production from intermittent renewable sources, thereby stabilizing the grid and ensuring reliable power delivery.
What is the goal of a VPP?
What is the goal of VPP, and what can be achieved with it when using ei360 energy platform?
The Virtual Power Plant (VPP) empowered by the ei360 energy platform enables various use cases including enhancing grid stability, improving efficiency, and supporting electrification efforts, while also focusing on decarbonization. The ei360 energy platform achieves this by integrating various storage systems through patented architecture, allowing the aggregation of their collective energy to be efficiently distributed to the grid during peak demand periods.
How can the technical units be connected in a VPP?
How can the technical units be connected in a VPP provided by ei360?
Interoperability enabled through the ei360 platform is essential for integrating diverse energy technologies and devices within a VPP, as well as providing seamless communication and coordination among these assets. It’s crucial for the deployment of advanced monitoring and AI control schemes, which require compatibility between different energy technologies and devices.
​
Interoperability is important for VPPs to effectively interact with existing grid control systems and to respond to developments in the energy market. Without interoperability, VPPs would face challenges in integrating various assets, ensuring data security, and achieving efficient and stable operation.
