A1 Virtual Power Plant

The A1 Virtual Power Plant networks thousands of decentralised energy systems - from battery storage systems and industrial plants to emergency power generators - to form an intelligent, virtual power plant. This bundled flexibility is controlled in real time and used specifically on European energy markets and for balancing energy. This turns distributed systems into an economically viable, stable system for grid operators and energy suppliers.

New energies, new challenges

The energy transition and the resulting need to expand renewable energy sources pose major challenges for grid operators and energy suppliers in terms of keeping the electricity grid stable. Electrical production and consumption systems must be controlled in such a way that they are grid-compatible and the flexibility on different markets can be utilised.
A large number of small and medium-sized systems in the portfolio of energy suppliers, but also third-party systems such as batteries, smaller power plants, industrial plants or emergency power generators, must be integrated quickly, cost-effectively, safely and stably. In many cases, however, this cannot be achieved economically with existing systems.
This is where our solutions come into play, which are efficiently scalable and optimally utilise the existing
potential.

With the help of A1's GSM-based controller, we can integrate our systems flexibly and quickly into the virtual power plant. In combination with the sophisticated pool software, this enables us to maximise revenue optimisation."
