9 April 2021: Fujitsu using Autogrid s VPP platform to drive uptake of distributed renewable energy in Japan
US distributed energy resources software-as-a-service provider Autogrid’s virtual power plant (VPP) solution will be sold in the Japanese market by tech company Fujitsu.
Autogrid’s virtual power plant solution, Autogrid Flex, aggregates the capabilities of thousands of distributed resources including home solar and battery storage to perform applications to balance the grid traditionally provided by fossil fuel or nuclear plants.
The technology solutions installed will be owned by Ameresco on land it will lease from Colorado Mountain College. Ameresco will then sell the output generated to HCE.
The avoided annual greenhouse gas emissions of the solar PV are expected to be 6,853 metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, which equates to the emissions benefit of removing 1,481 passenger vehicles from the road, or not burning 7,551,050 pounds of coal.
