Virtual power plants and the future electric grid

This week, Energy Evolution reports from CERAWeek, S&P Global's flagship energy conference.

Today’s conversation is with Meghan Nutting, executive vice president of Government and Regulatory Affairs at Sunnova Energy.

Virtual power plants (VPPs) can help manage grid demand and support electrification, Nutting told podcast co-host Taylor Kuykendall on the sidelines of the event. She also talked about Sunnova’s Project Hestia, how VPPs may fit in with large conventional power plants, and policy levers to support solar power deployment.
