How does one learn more about virtual power plants? Are there books you'd recommend? I am interested in learning both about the tech involved and the market dynamics.
- datadrivenangel 2y agoI wrote a book on the topic based on the research I started in university! Virtual Power: The future of energy flexibility. My friends and family who guilt-tripped themselves into buying it to support me said it's surprisingly readable! Note: it is more market, policy, and energy technology focused, so not a deep dive into the networking and software.
- cipherself 2y agoVery cool, ordered :)
- datadrivenangel 2y agoContact info is in the book if you have any questions!
- cosmic_quanta 2y agoWow that's cool, ordered a copy as well. Thanks!
- stephendeyoung 2y agoNice!
- cosmic_quanta 2y agoI really like the US Department of Energy 'state of affairs' document called The pathway to virtual power plants commercial liftoff (https://liftoff.energy.gov/vpp/ https://liftoff.energy.gov/vpp/).
- cipherself 2y agoNice, thanks. I've download the "Full Report" and will give it a read.
