Clean Coalition's Craig Lewis on Microgrids, VPPs, and the Resilience Gap Community microgrids and virtual power plants (VPPs) are often discussed as complementary technologies, yet they serve fundamentally different roles in the future energy system. In this episode of The Clean Power Hour, Craig Lewis, Founder and CEO of the Clean Coalition, returns to explore the critical distinction between grid reliability and grid resilience—and why understanding that difference could reshape the future of distributed energy deployment across America. Craig shares how community microgrids can deliver long-duration resilience for critical infrastructure, why virtual power plants excel at grid reliability services, and how the combination of solar, battery storage, and advanced grid orchestration can unlock unprecedented value for utilities, developers, investors, and communities. The discussion takes a deep dive into California’s Microgrid Incentive Program (MIP), one of the most significant policy initiatives supporting community-scale resilience projects in the United States. Craig explains how qualifying projects can receive up to $18 million in funding for front-of-meter solar, battery storage, grid modernization, and interconnection infrastructure, while also detailing the technical and economic frameworks required to successfully develop these projects. Key topics include: • Community Microgrids vs. Virtual Power Plants (VPPs) • Reliability vs. Resilience: Why the Difference Matters • California’s $18 Million Microgrid Incentive Program (MIP) • Front-of-Meter Solar + Storage Economics • Building Value Stacks Through CAISO, Bilateral Agreements & PURPA • The Rising Cost of Transmission Infrastructure • Grid Modernization and Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) • Energy Resilience for Hospitals, Fire Stations & Critical Facilities • The Clean Coalition’s VOR123 Resilience Methodology • Location-Specific VPPs and the Future of Grid Optimization Craig also explains why transmission costs—not energy generation costs—are increasingly driving electricity rate increases, and why deploying distributed energy resources closer to load centers may be the most cost-effective path toward a cleaner, more resilient grid. For solar developers, EPCs, utilities, policymakers, investors, battery storage professionals, and clean energy advocates, this conversation offers valuable insights into one of the fastest-growing opportunities in the energy transition.
