Google hopes its data centres can draw on that capacity without requiring a single new power line to be built. This kind of system has helped Voltus make its name since its founding in 2016. Today, it is the US’ s most widely-recognised VPP aggregator, managing more than 7GW of capacity across its platform.
The commercial logic Historically, meeting massive new energy demand has required an asset-heavy approach, spending years and billions of dollars expanding the grid to handle short periods of peak demand. These expenses have been one of the main reasons for rises in the cost of electricity in recent years. When you build enough infrastructure to cater for moments of peak demand, however, a large amount of that system does not see much use.
