About Leap

Leap is a software platform that enables technology providers to build and manage virtual power plants (VPPs) by connecting distributed energy resources (DERs) — such as batteries, EV chargers, smart thermostats, and HVAC systems — to energy markets and grid services. Its software-only solution provides fast, automated access to demand response and other grid services revenue streams through a single API and integration. By aggregating enrolled DERs, Leap supplies VPPs that help balance the grid and accelerate the transition to clean energy.
