Arizona Public Service’s Virtual Power Plant | Episode 75 with Kerri Carnes

Ready to dive into the innovative world of virtual power plants, or VPPs? This week on the Grid Mod Pod, we’re joined by Kerri Carnes, Director of Customer Solutions at Arizona Public Service. We’ll be talking about the transformative impact of APS's award-winning VPP initiative, which is reshaping how utilities manage energy demand and integrate renewable resources. Here's what you'll learn about when you tune in: -How virtual power plants can significantly enhance grid performance. Why data-driven decision-making is essential for operational efficiency. -Why affordability should be a key consideration in customer programs. -Why customer experience should be prioritized in program design. -How the APS Marketplace has revolutionized customer engagement. -How learning from failures can drive innovation in the energy sector. – Grid modernization happens inside a highly regulated, security-conscious, non-traditional business model that operates very differently than most industries. At its core are utility leaders and operation experts who are navigating new tools, regulations, and more to deliver a sustainable, affordable power grid for all. We're here to bring their voices and perspectives to the surface on the Grid Mod Pod. Each week, you’ll hear directly from the utility leaders and practitioners doing the real work of modernizing and improving our ever-evolving power grid. Each episode stays grounded in practical, on-the-ground insights around what leaders are prioritizing, how they’re building alignment, and how they're driving change. We hope you walk away from this podcast with the insights and momentum needed to spark change in our industry. This podcast is brought to you by Association of Edison Illuminating Companies (AEIC), the place for knowledge sharing across the electric utility industry. Founded by Thomas Edison, we’ve been leading the way since 1885. We’ll be back with a new episode next week. Until then, keep powering on!
