Their platform unifies DERMS, customer engagement, and load forecasting to provide utilities with advanced tools for managing distributed energy resources and demand response programs (source: virtual-peaker.com).

Shortly after, the company announced a strategic partnership with Southern Maryland Electric Cooperative, expanding its footprint in utility demand response and distributed energy resource management (source: virtual-peaker.com). These developments underscore Virtual Peaker’s ongoing commitment to enhancing grid-edge software solutions and supporting utilities in managing distributed energy resources effectively.
