Market Summary
Research Methodology on Virtual Power Plant Market
Introduction
Virtual power plants (VPPs) are distributed energy resources (DERs) or microgrids that are managed through a cloud-based platform to optimize their use of distributed generation and demand management services. A VPPs ability to aggregate distributed resources, including renewables, to create an optimal energy profile for a designated area makes it a powerful tool for managing electricity demand and supply.
Market Research Future (MRFR) predicts the growth of the Virtual Power Plant (VPP) market to be driven by favourable government policies that incentivize the implementation of smart grid technologies, increasing implementation of renewables, and expansion of the energy and power industry, among other factors. The move to virtual power plants is expected to result in tremendous savings for the energy industry, through more efficient generation and transmission of electricity, lower cost of operations and enable a more reliable, affordable and secure grid.
