Google与能源公司Voltus签署协议，建立一座容量为1GW的虚拟电厂1。这一合作将通过向用户提供激励措施，鼓励他们减少电力消费或使用可再生能源储存，为Google的数据中心释放电力空间1。该虚拟电厂将覆盖美国PJM电网区域，服务范围涵盖13个州及华盛顿特区，涉及约6700万人口1。
此项合作是Google与Voltus关系的进一步深化。两家公司今年早些时候曾签署过一份100MW规模的协议1。Google数据中心电力需求的增长已导致电价上升，进而加重了现有消费者的用电负担1。
Google has partnered with energy company Voltus to establish a 1-gigawatt virtual power plant designed to free up electricity for the tech giant's data center operations 1. The agreement builds on an earlier 100-megawatt deal the two companies signed earlier this year 1.
The virtual power plant will operate within the PJM Interconnection, the largest electric grid region in the United States, serving approximately 67 million people across 13 states and Washington, D.C. 1. Under the arrangement, Voltus will incentivize consumers to reduce their electricity consumption or shift their usage toward renewable energy storage, effectively redirecting power resources to support Google's expanding data center needs 1. The increasing electricity demands of data centers have driven up energy prices, placing additional financial pressure on existing consumers in the region 1.
