Virtual Power Plant
VPP, aggregation and demand response
The VPP module allows you to aggregate distributed resources — renewable plants, BESS, flexible loads — into virtual units managed as a single power plant. The Dispatch Optimizer allocates power across resources in real time to maximize revenue from ancillary services. UVAM qualification automates the process at Terna with prequalification tests and performance monitoring. Demand Response manages flexibility programs with an interface towards prosumers and aggregators. The Innovation Lab allows you to experiment with new aggregation models and dispatching algorithms.
Capabilities
Everything you need to get the most out of this module.
Aggregation
Intelligent grouping of distributed assets into virtual units with automatic composition optimization
Dispatch Optimizer
Real-time allocation of power between resources to maximize revenues while respecting the technical constraints of each asset
UVAM Qualification
UVAM automated qualification process: prequalification tests, Terna documentation and performance monitoring
Demand Response
Management of load modulation programs with prosumer interface, price signals and flexibility incentives
Innovation Lab
Sandbox to experiment with new dispatching algorithms, aggregation models and integration with emerging technologies
Knowledge Base
Technical documentation, best practices, case studies and updated legislation on VPP management in Italy and Europe
Use Cases
Real scenarios where this module makes the difference.
Real-time UVAM dispatching
The system receives an activation signal from Terna and automatically allocates 50 MW among 200 assets distributed in 3 seconds.
New UVAM qualification
The aggregator prepares the documentation to qualify a new 10 MW UVAM with automated prequalification tests.
Demand response program
An industry participates in a DR program: the system manages the modulation signals and calculates the accrued incentives.
