The fastest path to power: Virtual power plants

Virtual power plants (VPPs) aggregate and control existing resources like building controls, refrigeration, energy storage, lighting, electric vehicles, and industrial processes to provide market-accredited capacity solutions.

1. Accelerated time to power

For developers and hyperscalers, Voltus VPPs allow you to “Bring Your Own Capacity” (BYOC) to your utility in order to get approval to build faster — without waiting on traditional infrastructure.

2. Affordable alternative

VPPs offer a cost-effective alternative to traditional infrastructure by utilizing existing distributed energy resources instead of requiring costly new generation or grid upgrades.

3. Clean, reliable, scalable

VPPs avoid new emissions while increasing grid reliability. They’re modular, adaptable, and market-proven. Voltus manages 8.4 GW across North America.

4. Public value, not just private investment

VPPs pay local businesses and residents to participate. That means more distributed income, less ratepayer burden, and better community outcomes.

“Cloverleaf is excited to work with Voltus on this product. Voltus has proven their ability to quickly bring capacity to market, and our collaboration will allow Cloverleaf to continue to bring a robust pipeline of ready-to-go projects to our data center clients. Further, this offers a direct way for data centers to bring economic benefits to the community - by funding VPPs they provide local businesses and residents with an opportunity to earn income through participation.”

- Brian Janous, Chief Commercial Officer of Cloverleaf Infrastructure
