Does anyone have any experience with VPP's and there efficency, pricing and contracts?
I understand in theory how they work. Being so new IDK about the major draw backs beyond term of commitment or if rates and if equity divide is negotiable?

What is a virtual power plant? Sounds like a ponzi scheme.

They run on bitcoins.

Bump... No one has any actual dealings with this new way of running solar?

Just a quick look see and its any plant that produces power and usually sells excess back to the utility company.
That can be a small private power plant, a home solar system or even an EV that can sell its electricity to the utility company in an emergency.

Got it, thank you. Do the mail carriers have a perspective on it?

It really depends on how you aim to position yourself. Are you looking to generate and add to the 'VPP'?

There are programs in the northeast and mid-west that have taken off in the last few years. We refer to them as 'community solar'. They operate very similarly.
