Lior Handelsman, VP of Marketing & Product Strategy and Founder of SolarEdge, discusses cloud-based grid services and VPP solutions that offer real-time aggregative control and data reporting while enabling the pooling of PV, storage, and EV chargers.
Israel-headquartered SolarEdge launched a software platform for aggregating household energy storage units - and other distributed energy equipment - into virtual power plants, last week. The company’s solution has already been chosen for a VPP project in Australia by AGL, one of the country’s biggest utilities. The commercial launch of the VPP platform direct to customers is now underway.
