Withthegrid is proud to announce that our product, the Teleport, has achieved Emsys certification. This certification allows Teleport users to officially connect remote control equipment to the Emsys Virtual Power Plant (VPP) infrastructure, unlocking new opportunities for asset owners, independent power producers (IPPs) and energy traders

Understanding Emsys VPP

The Emsys Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is a European market leader and advanced platform designed to aggregate decentralized energy resources (DERs), such as solar panels, wind turbines, and battery storage systems, into a single, digital power plant.

By integrating these diverse energy assets and leveraging advanced algorithms and real-time data, the Emsys VPP allows users to:

• Monitor and control remotely the DERs in real-time
• Integrate efficiently these DERs into electricity markets
• Optimize their operation based on market conditions and grid requirements

A rigorous certification process

Becoming an Emsys certified partner is no small feat. The certification process is rigorous, emphasizing cybersecurity and operational reliability. This ensures that only trusted partners can connect, maintaining the overall security and stability of the VPP network.

Withthegrid’s Teleport has successfully passed this certification process, demonstrating its ability to provide a secure communication layer between energy assets and the VPP. This ensures that data transmitted from remote control equipment to the VPP is safeguarded against unauthorized access and cyberattacks. For energy asset owners, this means peace of mind knowing that their assets are protected.

Benefits for asset managers

For asset owners, the integration of Teleport with the Emsys VPP offers numerous benefits:

1. Enhanced transparency: By deploying Teleport on-site, asset owners gain real-time visibility into how their assets are managed and steered. This transparency is crucial for making informed decisions and optimizing asset performance.

2. Cybersecure communication: Teleport acts as a secure intermediary, ensuring that all communications between the DERs and the VPP are encrypted and protected.

3. Operational efficiency: The integration with Emsys VPP allows for real-time monitoring and control, leading to more efficient energy management. This results in cost savings and improved asset performance.

4. Market access: Integration with the Emsys VPP opens up new market opportunities for asset managers. By being part of a larger network of energy resources, they can participate in energy markets more effectively and increase revenue streams.
   
5. Scalability: As part of a virtual power plant, energy assets can be scaled more effectively. The Emsys VPP enables the aggregation of multiple energy sources, providing a flexible and scalable solution for asset owners.

Conclusion

The Emsys certification of Teleport underscores Withthegrid’s mission to provide secure, reliable, and scalable solutions for energy professionals. 

As an Emsys certified partner, Teleport opens up new possibilities for energy asset owners, offering enhanced transparency, robust cybersecurity, and improved operational efficiency. By connecting remote control equipment to the Emsys VPP infrastructure, asset owners can now leverage the full potential of their energy assets, contributing to a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
