MCE has unveiled an all-electric clean energy home, meant to be sold to lower-income first-time home buyers in Richmond, Calif.
Led, in partnership, by the ZNE Alliance and MCE, this Richmond Advanced Energy Community project uses MCE’s VPP. In exchange, participating customers allow their smart energy devices to respond to MCE’s signals to shift load based on the grid’s needs.
“Our virtual power plant connects distributed energy resources like solar, battery storage, electric vehicles, electric water heaters and heat pumps into one system that can be shifted when needed,” says Vicken Kasarjian, MCE COO.
“When combined, these small resources can provide clean electricity to the grid during peak hours when the demand is high and take energy from the grid when there are surplus conditions in the grid due to high generation and low loads.”
The Richmond Advanced Energy Community is supported by a $5 million grant from the California Energy Commission and $2.8 million in match funding from partners that include the City of Richmond, CalEPA and MCE.

Sadly, a significant number of U.S. voters believe what House Speaker Mike Johnson says here, i.e., that “God isn’t finished with America yet,” and that “We need people (from the Republican party) of character and integrity,” as if there are any.
But what is that number, roughly?
After living through the first 18 month of Trump’s second term, with all the lies, the incompetence, and the corruption, this number has dwindled to a point that the Republicans are bracing themselves for the worst.
Republicans Manipulate American’s Ignorance — and it Doesn’t Take Too Much Skill
I’m sure some of these excuses are extremely common in the minds of those making huge profits by destroying our planet.
