SDG&E PIONEERS VIRTUAL POWER PLANT TO HELP EASE STRAIN ON THE POWER GRID DURING EXTREME HEAT

月曜日, 8月 28, 2023

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 28, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- As extreme heat records fall across the West and strain the power grid, San Diego Gas & Electric is piloting a new cleantech innovation known as a virtual power plant (a VPP) to reduce energy demand and put electricity back on the grid during peak hours – all through leveraging the capabilities of customer-owned smart thermostats, rooftop solar, energy storage and other connected resources such as water pumps.

Key Points: 
  • (Download project photos via this Dropbox link: VPP )
    Unlike a traditional power plant, a virtual power plant does not rely on a physical facility to generate electricity for the grid to distribute to homes and businesses.
  • Software programs run VPPs in concert with grid operations to dispatch communications signals to devices in the VPP network to either power down or discharge electricity from existing resources back to the grid.
  • "The beauty of a virtual power plant is it can leverage existing resources to provide significant grid reliability benefits – with zero incremental emissions," said SDG&E Chief Commercial Officer Miguel Romero.
  • In August, as temperatures soared, SDG&E deployed its VPP pilot three times to support the grid during peak demand periods.
