The Problem

Participation alone doesn't create earnings

Most VPPs enroll once, stay static, and miss evolving opportunities.

Most VPPs

  • Enroll once
  • Stay static
  • Miss evolving opportunities

The result

  • Missed opportunities across programs
  • Underperformance vs modeled outcomes
  • Limited earnings per asset

Earnings come from continuous optimization and reliable execution.

How It Works

An energy broker that never stops working

DividendVPP continuously forecasts upcoming events, identifies the highest-value opportunities, and shifts across programs dynamically.

Forecasts

Grid events and price signals

Prepares

Pre-charging, readiness

Optimizes

Across programs and incentives

Allocates

To the best-paying interval

Executes

Deterministic site control

Verifies

Settlement-ready telemetry

Your systems always participate in the best available opportunities.

Why It Performs Better

Built on execution, not just access

Access gets you into programs. Execution determines how much you earn.

Pre-event readiness

Maximize available capacity before dispatch, not reaction after.

Real-time response

Capture every dispatch with deterministic, coordinated execution.

Verified telemetry

Ensure settlement and payment with closed-loop confirmation.

Earnings uplift

Up to 2-4x higher realized earnings

Compared to static, single-program participation. Dynamic optimization plus reliable execution = materially higher returns.

VPP 1.0 baseline

Typical OEM-led API aggregation with limited site control and static dispatch.

2-4×Earnings range

DividendVPP

Forecasting, optimization, and deterministic execution combined in a closed loop.

Results depend on program mix, asset configuration, and deployment depth. Earnings uplift is driven by execution quality, asset staging, multi-DER coordination, and integrated forecasting and optimization through Lightsmith Energy. Past performance does not guarantee future results.

Three Components That Drive Earnings

Capture. Control. Optimize.

01

Capture

Power Management Agreement

Secure participation and revenue rights for the long term.

02

Control

Site Controller

Ensure systems perform when called, with deterministic site-level control.

03

Optimize

Optimization Engine

Continuously maximize value across programs as markets evolve. Powered by Lightsmith.

Together, these transform installed systems into long-term earning assets.

Business Model
