Vermont turns home batteries into a virtual power plant
Original: Vermont replacing power plants with home batteries
Vermont is deploying a network of home batteries that operate as a virtual power plant, drawing on stored household energy to keep the grid stable during storms and reducing the need for new power plants. The scheme highlights how distributed storage can support reliability in a small state facing increasingly severe winter weather.
Why now: The model of household batteries replacing traditional power plants is seen as a potential blueprint for grid decarbonisation elsewhere.
