This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

There's already a petition about this issue. We cannot accept a new petition when we already have one about a very similar issue.

You are more likely to get action on this issue if you sign and share a single petition.

You may wish to sign this petition calling for a similar action: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/584316

It's not clear what you mean by a "virtual power plant", especially as your petition refers to this providing power at night, when solar panels would not be generating energy.
