deX for Electricity Retailers and Aggregators

A key part of the Electricity Retailer/Aggregator value stack

As an electricity retailer or aggregator, deX gives you the tools you need to scale your VPP offering across technologies and products, increasing your customer reach, while reducing the cost and time to deployment.

deX provides an out-of-the-box VPP solution – Command – that enables you to coordinate, monitor and dispatch assets for wholesale and ancillary services. We also support integration for third-party VPP platforms via API, so you can bring your existing VPP platform to deX.

Grow your fleet by leveraging the expanding group of Certified deX API technology integrations with global brands across solar PV, battery storage and EV charging solutions. Smooth the path for the customer and installer experience with registration tools to accelerate the time from connection approvals to full digital access and build up portfolios of multi-technology VPPs.

deX for Retailers and Aggregators incorporates a suite of training and support, tools and applications. This includes a web-based, installer-friendly device registration tool, direct API integration based device registrations, and a native or third-party VPP interface to coordinate and monetise wholesale market and ancillary service opportunities.

With consolidated licencing for qualifying vendors, we make it easy for you to build scale from a few hundred to many thousands of devices across technologies from smart solar to energy storage to EV charging.
