The Energy Internet has opened extraordinary opportunities to control distributed energy resources
(DERs) on a massive scale. But as demand response (DR), distributed generation (DG), storage and
microgrids multiply, utilities and aggregators need new ways to manage their complexity and leverage
their capabilities. The solution lies in creating the next generation of integrated strategic resource: the
Virtual Power Plant (VPP).
VPPs allow you to assemble portfolios of DERs Meeting these requirements demands an
and operate them as unified, flexible resources innovative approach to DER aggregation.

Reduce project risk and time
Fastest, lowest-risk deployment: Easy configurability, flexible SaaS architecture, open standards
and rich APIs enable deployment typically within one to three months.
Proven deployments: AutoGrid Flex™ reliably manages distributed assets as part of VPP, DR
and distributed energy resources management systems (DERMS) use cases at dozens of energy
providers worldwide.
ENECO
deployed AutoGrid VPP to aggregate a vast network of distributed energy
resources and manage them as a unified 100 MW resource to monetize into
the wholesale balancing market and balance intermittent wind generation in
real time.
