FAQS about Microgrid vs virtual power plant São Tomé and Príncipe

What are microgrids & virtual power plants?

When connected, microgrids and Virtual Power Plants (VPP) can create a more reliable and sustainable electricity infrastructure while also delivering immense economic benefits.

What is the difference between a microgrid and a VPP?

Microgrids and Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) differ in several aspects. Microgrids are dependent upon hardware innovations such as inverters and smart switches, whereas VPPs are heavily dependent upon smart meters and IT. Microgrids encompass a static set of resources in a confined geography, while VPPs can mix and match among a diversity of resources over large geographic regions.
