Virtual Power Plant Solutions for Utilities
Turn commercial buildings into grid-interactive resources that deliver predictable demand-side capacity and enhance reliability. Our solution goes beyond seasonal event-based demand response — enabling daily load shifting and year-round flexibility.
In doing so, we help utilities manage flexible load at scale and drive lasting impact across the evolving energy landscape.
INTELLIGENT VPP MANAGEMENT
Edo’s AI-driven platform transforms commercial buildings into virtual power plants (VPPs). By aggregating these flexible, grid-interactive assets, utilities gain the real-time visibility and automated control needed to manage buildings and distributed energy resources (DERs) for daily demand flexibility and peak reduction. As load growth accelerates, scalable demand-side flexibility is becoming essential to maintaining a reliable grid.
Recruit Commercial Buildings for VPPs
Recruit and enroll commercial buildings into VPPs using utility data and our expertise.
Enable Automated Flexible Load Control
Automate load adjustments in response to grid signals, while maintaining customer comfort and control.
Add Capacity without New Generation
Reduce peak demand with flexible load instead of new infrastructure.
CORE CAPABILITIES
Edo’s platform is built on deep expertise in energy management, offering robust, scalable solutions.
Edo’s Gateway (hardware) and Platform (software) interfaces with customers’ existing building management systems (BMS), eliminating the need for costly replacements. It connects with all behind-the-meter building assets including onsite DERs, and provides the customers and utilities with visibility into energy performance and grid-responsive capacity in real time.

Adapt building and DER loads dynamically to changing grid conditions, customer preferences, and program goals. Edo’s machine learning and optimization models continuously improve load forecasting and dispatch strategies, delivering location-specific visibility and predictability for enrolled flexibility assets.
Edo combines energy efficiency and automated demand response in a singleseamless platform—without disrupting building occupants. The VPP integrates directly with utility ADMS or DERMS systems, optimizing asset dispatch based on forecasted availability and grid needs to maximize flexibility and reliability.
