Leap allows every connected device to help balance the grid, and get paid for it. Access wholesale markets through a single API and help build the flexible, renewable grid of the future. During peak hours when demand for energy is high, grid operators offer financial incentives to reduce energy use in order to balance the grid. Combined with other participants, those resources form a virtual power plant. Grid operators pay Leap's virtual plant just as they do for traditional power plants, and Leap pays its partners for participating.
