While electricity prices on the stock market are subject to ever greater fluctuations these days, off-market contracts, known as power purchase agreements, can provide a solution. These agreements can not only provide protection against volatile prices, but also boost the expansion of renewable power plants. You will learn exactly what this is all about in this blog post.

New sales records for e-vehicles are set every year. But how can their load profile be coordinated in a way that is viable or even integrated to serve the grid? In this blog post, we will present the potentials of integrating e-vehicles into virtual power plants.

A virtual power plant is an association of decentralised units that are coordinated via a common control system. The purpose of a virtual power plant is to sell the electricity and flexibility provided by the large network of aggregated installations through a single source. This blog post will explain where this idea originated and how it can be used in the energy transition.

The legal framework has been established to meet the three overarching objectives of energy policy, those being economic efficiency, environmental compatibility and security of supply. This includes the Renewable Energy Sources Act (EEG), which has created incentives for the expansion of renewable energy sources. Since this subsidy is no longer available or will soon be phased out for certain installations, we would like to present options on how to sell the energy they generate in the future in this blog post.
