How does a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) work?

Our VPP service allows you to make part of our assets virtually available for optimisation on the day-ahead market. Together, we set the parameters to achieve the desired structure. Thanks to the flexible gas-fired SLOE power plant, EP NL can respond quickly to electricity demand. We offer this flexibility in the form of a Virtual Power Plant (VPP), which can serve as a trading product or hedging instrument. This is particularly interesting for energy companies that, for example due to a large wind portfolio, want to manage fluctuations in generation and prices to mitigate risks.

Who are VPPs suitable for?

Producers: wind- or solar farms

  • Reduction of profile and imbalance costs
  • Control of financial risks in case of fluctuations in production
  • Reduction of risks through the use of a VPP

Energy traders

  • Optimising opportunities through volatility in forward and spot markets
  • Generating maximum value from flexible assets using a VPP
  • Increasing profitability through efficient use of a VPP

Resellers
