SolarEdge to Power Xcel Energy’s New ‘Renewable Battery Connect’ Virtual Power Plant Incentive Program in Colorado

  • SolarEdge Home Battery owners in Colorado that are eligible[1] to enroll can receive meaningful financial benefits out of active participation in a new incentive program for solar-battery energy while helping to stabilize Colorado’s grid
  • SolarEdge’s innovative software will automatically manage battery charge and discharge during events, maximizing benefits for both the utility and program participants

MILPITAS, Calif. — August 22, 2023 – SolarEdge Technologies, Inc. (“SolarEdge”) (NASDAQ: SEDG) today announced the inclusion of the SolarEdge Home Battery in Xcel Energy’s new ‘Renewable Battery Connect” Virtual Power Plant (VPP) incentive program.

Eligible SolarEdge Home Battery owners in Colorado can now sign up for the Renewable Battery Connect program and earn meaningful financial incentives in return for discharging their stored solar battery energy during times of peak demand, helping to stabilize the grid.

SolarEdge’s DC-Coupled solution can provide up to 7% more solar power with industry-leading system efficiency by eliminating the ‘triple-conversion penalty’, with two fewer power conversions required than AC-coupled alternatives, maximizing benefits for both homeowners and utilities. SolarEdge’s innovative software is designed to automatically manage the battery charge and discharge during scheduled grid control events, simplifying the process for both the utility and program participants.

Peter Mathews, North America General Manager of SolarEdge, added: “We worked closely with Xcel Energy to design a program that meets Colorado’s specific energy requirements, while also providing an easier and more profitable way for homeowners to become part of the solution. The combination of our highly efficient DC-coupled technology and innovative software lays the groundwork for future VPP growth, as we continue to move towards a net-zero economy.”

The Renewable Battery Connect incentive program will be added to SolarEdge’s growing Grid Services portfolio, which saw a 70% growth in sites enrolled globally in the second quarter of

  1. In the U.S. 16% of the Company’s battery installations are now enrolled in grid services programs.

PEOPLE SAY...

“I’ve worked with Incus/Bespoke for almost 20 years and they have always exceeded my expectations. I now run my own Marketing consultancy, and to this day, they remain my only recommendation for PR services to any of my customers. Their “can do” approach and super responsiveness, is not only highly appreciated, but required for businesses at the start of their journeys. Working with different Incus team members on varying client accounts, I’m always impressed by their professionalism, quality of service and market/industry knowledge – they’re a team of top professionals who can operate at all levels of a business. In addition, when I have a challenge that needs creative out-of-the box thinking, my favourite answer from them is, “leave it with us” – I then know that I can relax and that everything will be OK.”
