Who developed DividendVPP?

DividendVPP was co-developed by Molecule Systems and Lightsmith Energy, combining execution infrastructure (Molecule) with forecasting and optimization intelligence (Lightsmith). Molecule provides the edge-based control layer-MOS 350 gateways, real-time telemetry, deterministic dispatch, protocol-agnostic integration-ensuring batteries respond reliably to dispatch signals. Lightsmith provides the value-stack algorithms-forecasting TOU windows, predicting demand response event likelihood, bidding into wholesale markets, optimizing across multiple programs simultaneously. Together, they deliver a fully-integrated, white-labeled VPP stack for battery OEMs. OEMs get recurring revenue per installed system, customers get up to 2-4x more earnings per battery. Results depend on program mix, asset configuration, and deployment depth. The partnership structure allows each company to focus on what they do best: Molecule handles execution, Lightsmith handles intelligence. For OEMs, it's plug-and-play: no firmware redesign, no new development, no disruption to installer networks. Just a white-labeled VPP that works.
