EV centric virtual power plants are such a flexible resource. They can create value starting at driver’s site, in the local distribution system, in the wholesale market and deliver for the system operator too. Stacking these value streams together delivers the fastest route to reduce energy bills, for every consumer. The challenge is that the value for flexibility is split across multiple stakeholders. These markets are emerging: which is why at ev.energy we are focussed on working hard to learn with our partners, working with over 50 utilties, regulators and all the major system operators to move forward the industry. Onwards to a #fullstack of fleixbility from EVs! #vpps
⚡️💰 Can multiple grid benefits be drawn from your EV fleet? Absolutely. There’s a misconception that you can't stack multiple benefits from a single asset, like an EV. In reality, the opposite is true. Smart automation of charging schedules allows EVs to solve multiple problems at once, strengthening the business case for managed charging and lowering energy bills for everyone. The ev.energy platform enables utilities to optimize simultaneously for multiple system needs, maximizing stackable value, while guaranteeing each driver’s charging needs are met. This holistic view moves managed charging beyond simple peak-shifting to unlock a range of tangible benefits—from local distribution circuits all the way up to the bulk power system. Our playbook unpacks the mechanics and real-world examples behind each of the six layers of the Cost-Avoidance Stack, a framework developed with research support from The Brattle Group.
