### Utilities are facing increased pressures to comply with grid mandates and sustainability targets, all while meeting growing demand and delivering reliable, cost-effective and low-carbon services to customers.

These are not small problems, but our smart grid solutions are helping to create a cleaner, safer and more reliable energy future for all. Alongside our utility partners, we are building virtual power plants (VPPs) that deliver a wide range of benefits:

**Sustainability Improvements**  
VPPs address load growth without building new carbon-intensive infrastructure, allowing for the decommissioning of fossil-fuel infrastructure and supporting sustainability targets.

**Frequency Response**  
Manage reliability during grid disturbances by stabilizing frequency following the sudden gains or losses of generation or load with VPPs.

**Reliable Supply**  
Distributed energy storage enables the use of low cost solar power and delivers the reliability that end-use customers are seeking, while supporting their broader community and the environment.

**Load Management**  
As a demand response solution, VPPs can balance the supply of electricity on the network by adjusting or controlling the load during periods of peak demand.

**Renewable Energy Balancing**  
The network of distributed energy storage assets can balance the overall intermittency and variability of renewable energy generation, to include excess production.

**Non-wires Solutions**  
Distributed energy resources can reduce the strain on distribution and transmission infrastructure and enable utilities to defer or avoid infrastructure upgrades.

## Swell Energy streamlines VPP adoption by offering additional services

**Enhanced Customer**  
**Experience**  
Comprehensive energy dashboard and integrated offerings make power personal for homeowners and businesses.

**Zero-Down**  
**Financing**  
Robust financing options allow utilities to offer clean, reliable back-up power to customers for no upfront cost.

**Easy**  
**Installations**  
A vast network of local solar and battery installers and technology partners enables the quick deployment of distributed energy resources at scale.

#### Swell Energy unites utilities, electricity suppliers, end-use customers, and construction and technology partners behind the shared goal of achieving reliable, cost-effective, clean and flexible energy.
