In today’s rapidly evolving energy landscape, the push toward energy independence has never been stronger. Rising electricity costs, increasing grid instability, and the growing adoption of renewable energy sources are driving homeowners and small businesses to seek more reliable, cost-effective solutions.
The United States is experiencing a significant rise in urban residency, with a 6.4% increase in urban population between 2010 and 2020. Projections by Statista indicate that by 2050, over 87% of Americans will reside in cities, placing immense pressure on existing energy infrastructure.
Natural disasters such as hurricanes, wildfires, and floods pose significant threats to the reliability of power grids. Recent events such as Winter Storm Uri in Texas and Hurricane Helene in Florida have demonstrated the devastating impacts of prolonged power outages on communities and businesses.
In recent years, power grid failures have become an increasingly pressing concern for small businesses. With the rise in extreme weather events, aging infrastructure, and growing energy demands, blackouts are not just inconvenient, they can be catastrophic for businesses reliant on consistent power.
Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) modernize energy grids and enhance the stability, efficiency, and sustainability of electricity distribution systems. By aggregating distributed energy resources (DERs), such as solar panels, battery storage systems, and smart appliances, VPPs offer a flexible and reliable solution for managing energy demand and supply.
1GridPower is pleased to announce a Strategic Advisory Agreement for analytics and advisory support from Distributed Energy Clearinghouse®, a provider of distributed energy analytics and energy management services, for 1GridPower’s planned investments in advanced energy storage systems.
