The Orion Virtual Power Plant (OVPP) core concept is based on Orion’s ability to market energy-throughput (or high quality light) and displaced capacity (or reduced electricity consumption) to end-users and utilities alike. In other words, Orion generates this displaced capacity through the installation of its suite of energy saving lighting fixtures and thereby empowers commercial and industrial customers to control their energy and maintenance costs while allowing utility companies to reduce overall electricity demand.
