Generac, CPower Energy announce collaboration

Generac (GNRC) and CPower Energy, a Virtual Power Plant platform, announced a collaboration to support commercial and industrial customers across PJM, North America’s largest grid, by leveraging distributed generation to achieve greater resiliency and demand response outcomes at a time when soaring electricity demand is pushing power prices to historic highs. The collaboration pairs Generac’s equipment and industrial dealer network with CPower’s wholesale market program access and demand response expertise to deploy distributed generation solutions across PJM, including battery energy storage systems, generators and microgrids. Beginning in June 2026, C&I customers can participate in capacity, ancillary services, energy and on-bill programs, creating a new source of recurring energy revenue and savings for their facilities.
