VPPiQ Fleet · Planned capability
Complex fleets.
Clearer coordination.
Bring participating homes into one coordinated energy portfolio. Our vision for VPPiQ Fleet combines household intelligence with fleet-level planning—so your team can set the objective while each home’s priorities shape the response.
Open for pilot discussions. VPPiQ Home provides the household foundation today; Fleet orchestration is planned.

One objective. Individual responses.Know what happened.
Compare the intended contribution with device response and measured energy. Make shortfalls visible, so the next plan can draw on what actually happened.

Intelligence for each home.
Coordination across the fleet.
Every home has a day to plan for. That understanding would help Fleet estimate what a portfolio could contribute—and coordinate around the people behind it.

Illustrative net energy at site meters, after household use and generation. Estimated allocation is a plan, not confirmed delivery.
Try a different request
5 MW × 2 hours = 10 MWh requested. Each window has different fictional power and energy limits; a longer request does not create more stored energy or charging space.
Follow the request, checks and result
- Example request
- 10 MWh
- 2-hour window
- 18:00–20:00Local to the example portfolio
- Average power requested
- 5 MWNet export at participating site meters
Understand the opportunity.
- Estimated power

The request fits the estimated envelope. This window allows up to 6 MW and 12 MWh. Local checks would still be required.
Estimated flexibility, not installed capacity or guaranteed delivery. Availability can change.

A simplified planning window.
The request is 10 MWh over 2 hours: 5 MW on average. Estimated flexibility is 6 MW / 12 MWh for that window, subject to local checks.
These homes illustrate constraints; they do not sum to the allocation. Fresh data, participation and control permissions would be checked before a request.
A request could target a portfolio, group or site. This example uses the eastern group. Allocation remains a plan; the result is simulated, with no assumed cause for a shortfall.
Response evidence and updated availability would inform replanning.
Your customers. Your direction.
A path that fits
your business.
Two planned delivery paths to explore together, built around your customer relationships.
VPPiQ Fleet, hosted.
Explore a hosted operator service for your participating portfolio, with VPPiQ Home as the household experience.
Discuss a hosted pilotVPPiQ Fleet.
Your branded home app.
Explore Fleet coordination together with a white-label household app for your end users. Your brand connects the operator workspace to each home’s visibility, preferences and participation.
Discuss a branded pilotBoth proposed paths include Fleet and a household app: VPPiQ Home or a white-label version for your customers. Fleet needs that household connection to understand priorities and participation. Branding and integration arrangements would be defined during pilot discovery.

a useful pilot.
Explore the design intentions and decisions we would work through together.
AEMO’s introduction to VPPsEducational context, not an endorsement.
AvailabilityCapacity that changes with the household
A useful estimate would combine battery state, forecasts, household plans and connection limits for the requested window. Installed capacity is only a starting point. Estimates would need to change as conditions change, with power in MW and energy over time in MWh kept distinct.
Household choicePermission before participation
The proposed approach is coordination within agreed participation, reserves and equipment limits. A household’s EV deadline or backup preference could constrain its contribution. Consent, withdrawal, overrides and event approval arrangements would be defined with the pilot partner.
TargetingOne objective. Appropriate requests for each site.
An operator could request a response from a portfolio, selected group or individual site. The intended design would translate that objective into suitable site requests, with local checks before action. Targeted coordination requests do not imply identical commands or a specific broadcast or multicast protocol; those interfaces remain to be designed.
The proposed operating loop
- UnderstandBuild a picture of the participating sites and their priorities.
- EstimateAssess flexibility for a particular time window.
- RequestSet an objective for a portfolio, group or individual site.
- Check locallyCheck each home’s permission, reserve and equipment limits.
- CoordinateAllocate a feasible response across eligible sites.
- ConfirmCheck device response and energy measured over the window.
- ReplanUse new information to adjust what happens next.
IntegrationClear integration and control ownership
A pilot would identify supported equipment, available interfaces, operating limits and who has authority to control each asset. Existing retailer, VPP or device controls would need to be accounted for. We would agree how conflicting instructions, failed commands and a return to household automation should be handled.
Data qualityFresh information. Visible uncertainty.
The fleet design would need to distinguish current readings from stale, missing or unavailable information. A pilot would establish freshness thresholds and how uncertain sites are excluded or limited, rather than treating every connected asset as available.
VerificationA response you can examine
A command being acknowledged is different from a device responding, and both differ from energy measured across a window. The proposed operator view would distinguish these stages and expose shortfalls. Forecast contribution, allocated contribution and measured results would remain separate.
GovernanceAccess and accountability by design
Operator roles, organisation boundaries, approval responsibilities and an audit history are enterprise design topics for pilot discovery. We would agree what needs to be recorded, who can access it and how integrations exchange information. Enterprise access controls, service levels and deployment arrangements are not yet implemented.
