About EnergyHub
EnergyHub is the flexibility platform for the modern grid. Its DERMS brings every flexible resource under one platform, regardless of ownership or program model, turning batteries, EVs, thermostats, and commercial and industrial sites into virtual power plants (VPPs) that deliver grid flexibility with the reliability of a power plant. EnergyHub helps 230+ utilities and local power companies manage 3M DERs and 4 GW of dispatchable flexible capacity with customer-centric VPPs and cross-DER optimization.
One Platform for Every Flexible Resource, with No Rip and Replace
EnergyHub's DERMS brings thermostats, EVs, residential and commercial batteries, C&I sites, and aggregations onto one platform, whatever their ownership or program model. Utilities avoid siloed operations and fragmented customer experiences, and manage all of it as flexible capacity via ongoing, automated optimization. A partner ecosystem of OEMs and aggregators reaches more than 90% of thermostats, EVs, and batteries, and API-based integrations extend utilities' customer and grid systems, from CIS and billing to control-room software.
Distribution Impact Operators Can Count On and Regulators Can Verify
EnergyHub's DERMS translates grid constraints into dispatch strategies. It can target dispatch to specific locations, keep load within the capacity limits of the transformers and feeders serving participating devices, and report performance down to the meter, giving operators and regulators auditable results. Utilities use it to protect assets from overload and defer infrastructure upgrades, not just reduce bulk system peaks.
VPPs That Perform Like Power Plants Meet Rising Demand Faster and for Less
Electricity demand is climbing, and utilities need new capacity they can deploy quickly. EnergyHub’s VPP Maturity Model, introduced in its white paper, shows how VPPs advance from basic demand response (Level 0), through operational parity with conventional generation (Level 2), to grid-integrated operation (Level 4) that delivers value conventional resources cannot.
That is what makes a DERMS a core part of how utilities operate and plan the grid — and the numbers back it up: VPPs can cost 40% to 60% less than traditional infrastructure, and they deploy in a fraction of the time. One utility's multi-state VPP, run on EnergyHub, shows it at scale: $17 million in net benefits as of October 2025 and more than 280,000 DERs enrolled across five states. Getting there takes utilities, OEMs, DERMS providers, regulators, and markets each doing their part.
