How a virtual power plant does it

Voltus pays energy users to use less energy when the electric grid is stressed or prices are high. Why? So the grid can be more reliable, more affordable, and cleaner for everyone who depends on it.

Here's how:

  • Reducing electricity use when  the grid needs it most
  • Avoiding the need for new peaking power plants that would run only a small number of hours throughout the year
  • Giving the grid the flexible resources needed to stay balanced as more wind and solar come online
  • Improving grid utilization, which could save customers billions in the next ten years (Utilitize Coalition Report, 2026)
