As Utility Dive reports, rising electricity demand is refocusing utilities on large-scale generation, but flexible, aggregated #DERs offer major near-term grid value. In 2026, whether #VPPs scale will depend on market rules and compensation.

Can #VPPs perform like traditional generation?
Join @latitudemedia.bsky.social's Frontier Forum as Seth Frader-Thompson and Duke Energy unpack the Huels Test and VPP Maturity Model — and what it takes to earn operator trust.

How can grid operators trust that a VPP is ready to replace traditional infrastructure?
EnergyHub's Huels Test offers an answer — helping utilities confirm #VPPs can perform like conventional generation.
IEEE Spectrum explores the capabilities: spectrum.ieee.org/virtual-powe...
As load grows, utilities need solutions that scale quickly and keep rates affordable. #VPPs do both: fast deployment, lower costs, and real capacity from devices customers own.

EnergyHub CEO Seth Frader-Thompson joined DER Task Force's pod to talk VPPs, utilities, & startup lessons:
- The Huels Test
- Why #VPPs can outclass traditional plants
- Scaling in vertically integrated markets

Not only should this be mandatory for all new construction, we should be retrofitting existing homes with this technology. Similarly to how water meters have been installed in existing homes in many communities.

What do overbooked summer flights & energy peaks have in common? It’s smarter to pay a few to opt out than fire up costly backups. That’s how #VPPs work — balancing the grid with flexible energy use. Clean, cost-effective and rewarding. #VirtualPowerPlant #DERs
If we can't depend on our centralized energy system, then we must decentralize it.

VPPs turn homes, businesses, #EVs & batteries into a smart, decentralized power network. Add AI-driven self-defending grids & you get an energy system that reacts in real time to outages & cyber threats. #VPPs are the Uber of electricity—future-proof, dynamic, resilient & renewable. #GridResilience
VPPs can add 80-160 GW by 2030, addressing 10-20% of peak demand. This boosts grid resilience, cuts emissions, & redirects costs from peaker plants to DERs. Learn more: www.liftoff.energy.gov/vpp #CleanEnergy #VPPs
