• ⚡️Your home could be a virtual power plant.

  EVs, data centers, and air conditioning are driving electricity demand sky-high in the US, but the Department of Energy predicts that half of the new juice the country needs could soon be provided by people and businesses with smart technology. By discharging unused power back to the grid or limiting consumption, incentivized industrial customers and individual electricity consumers who use green tech (solar panels, smart thermostats, etc.) function as virtual power plants. This can be a cleaner and cheaper alternative to building centralized energy-producing facilities, and the DOE estimates that it’ll grow threefold by 2030.

One way companies are responding to these hurdles is by purchasing leases in bulk, a pricey strategy that could have operators spending up to $100 million to secure a single block.
