The case for using prices rather than VPPs to coordinate distributed energy
Bruce Nordman, veteran research scientist on building energy and networked systems, advocates dynamic, time- and location-specific retail pricing to coordinate distributed energy. He explains why price signals can replace aggregators, how devices optimize locally to hourly to five-minute prices, and how price plus capacity envelopes preserve customer value, privacy, and grid safety.
