Eguana Technologies Inc. (TSX.V: EGT) (OTCQB: EGTYF), a
developer and manufacturer of high-performance energy storage
systems, and AutoGrid, an industry leader in harnessing
distributed energy resources (DERs) for virtual power plants
(VPPs), announce a new partnership, to open additional VPP
opportunities for power providers around the globe. Together,
Eguana and AutoGrid will support grid resilience, increase
sustainability and empower consumers in the transition to net zero.
With the integration of Eguana’s residential
energy storage systems into the AutoGrid Flex™ platform, utilities
can promote rapid residential storage adoption and consumer
participation for energy transition. AutoGrid Flex™ supports
Eguana’s technology by enabling automated demand response during
periods of peak demand, directing the energy storage devices to
offset home energy loads, discharge energy back into the grid, and
charge up when energy cost is low or from renewable sources. As a
result, VPP operators can overcome shortfalls in supply, eliminate
outages, avoid additional transmission infrastructure, and bypass
the need for heavily polluting peaker power plants.
Further, Eguana joins AutoGrid’s growing network
of device makers aggregated and orchestrated into multi-asset VPPs
by AutoGrid’s AI-driven Flex™ platform. In combination, the two
companies’ solutions, along with utility rebate programs, help
consumers reduce the initial cost of energy storage, cut their
ongoing energy costs, and support the integration of clean,
renewable energy into the grid.
“Residential energy storage is helping
revolutionize how we operate and optimize the grid, and Eguana’s
technology is at the forefront of this critical work,” said Gisela
Glandt, vice president of VPPs at AutoGrid. “At AutoGrid, we’re
thrilled to support our shared mission with this new
partnership.”
“We are pleased to partner with AutoGrid and
complete the upfront integration of our platforms, which
immediately expands our VPP networks,” commented Daljit Ghotra,
chief technology officer at Eguana. “Recent data shows over ten
million residential customers in the United States were
participating in various demand response electricity programs, and
the AutoGrid partnership allows us to tailor our Eguana demand
response solutions for utility VPP programs.”
