“…Despite its low relative inertia, the hydro plant is reported to be the best choice to seek various ASs from [21, 50]. SRAS, voltage control AS, network loading control AS, PFCAS, and SFCAS are some very common ASs being provided by the hydro plant [21, 50]. With the assistance of ESSs, the capability of the hydro plant can further be strengthened for FFCAS and PFCAS [7, 21] to reduce the impact of its low‐inertia and NPB.…”

This article presents internal model control (IMC) based decentralized reinforce-control of renewable dynamic virtual power plant (DVPP) so that, it can be integrated into the power system as a substitution of fuel-based conventional generators. Such grid integration towards net-zero targets could not be possible without providing additional ancillary service (AS) to the power system, as the traditional AS would fall short with the retirement/substitution of conventional generators. The theory of DVPP from a technical perspective (i.e., TDVPP) is presented in a detailed and simplified manner, including the formulation of a generalized control objective (desired specification) for DVPP integration. The solution approach includes two steps: (1) disaggregation of desired specification and (2) decentralized reinforce-control to match the disaggregated specification. The theory and solution approach for DVPP integration is presented in a generalized manner enabling the DVPP to offer multiple ASs, but the case study is limited only to frequency control AS (FCAS) in this article. The study is performed on the 'western system coordinating council (WSCC)' test system, in which an attempt is made towards net-zero targets by substituting the largest thermal generator with renewable DVPP ensuring the grid's operation or dynamics safe.

World over, COVID-19 pandemic has affected the behavior and livelihoods of the people. The impact is reflected in the power system operations and electricity markets. This paper examines the impact of COVID-19 on different Indian electricity market segments. The utilities on both demand side and supply side responded to situation with depressed volumes and prices. The paper also describes the measures taken by the system operator to cope up with the situation. The paper traces the resilience exhibited by Indian power system stakeholders in handling exceptional events during lockdown such as cyclones, eclipse and lights switch-off event. The implementation of initiatives such as Real Time Market and expansion of Security Constrained Economic Despatch pilot in this challenging environment is discussed briefly. The paper concludes with possible course of action contemplated for the future of Indian electricity market post COVID-19.
