Leading energy technology companies such as SolarEdge, Generac, EnergyHub, Sunrun and Nuvve partner with Leap to aggregate and monetize their energy assets as virtual power plants (VPPs). Through Leap’s software-only solution, companies can quickly connect distributed energy resources (DERs), such as battery storage systems, electric vehicles, smart thermostats and building management systems, to multiple energy markets in order to earn revenue in demand response and other grid services programs.

“Industry leaders choose Leap because we offer the fastest, easiest pathway to stand up VPPs across multiple markets,” said Thomas Folker, Leap CEO and Co-Founder. “The U.S. Department of Energy’s recent Pathways to Commercial Liftoff: Virtual Power Plants report calls for tripling the scale of VPP deployment by 2030. Thanks to Leap’s best-in-class technology, deep expertise in energy markets and partnerships with major technology brands, we are well-positioned to significantly advance that goal.”

Leap’s automated, technology-agnostic platform offers turnkey market access for both residential and commercial energy resources. Since launching in 2017, Leap has continued to build new product features to facilitate the fastest path to creating new value from DERs, such as Leap Connect, an app that reduces the complexity of customer meter authorizations by streamlining the process into a few simple clicks.

“SolarEdge’s grid-interactive technologies increase customer profit from surplus solar. This higher customer savings is driving strong demand for our home batteries and EV chargers, while cutting harmful pollution and emissions,” said Amir Cohen at SolarEdge. “Our Leap partnership boosts savings for solar system owners and furthers SolarEdge’s leadership in the smart energy transformation.”
