We all heard of Tesla's VPP desires in Texas, but it's getting closer. This was just posted last night and shows they're gearing up.
I haven't read about all things they did in California when they started there, but I assume they would use a similar start up approach. Buy out existing plan termination fees to get folks to switch over and join their VPP mesh? I wonder how this would fair out compared some net metering or free nights/weekends plan. I see them trying to get everyone to join by spring to show it off by the summer peaks.
