Summary Enhancing the balance between demand and generation with smooth performance, the integration of renewable energy sources (RESs) plays a vital role in the smart distribution system. However, due to the inherent uncertainty and intermittent nature of RESs, many issues and challenges such as power quality, efficiency, stability, and reliability need to be taken care of for achieving an optimal operation. To resolve these associated problems, the virtual power plant (VPP) has been introduced and integrated with present smart distribution systems without sacrificing the grid stability and reliability along with offering many techno‐economic benefits. This article is a precise presentation of issues, modeling, effective management mechanism solutions, and prospects of VPP. In addition to that, the present status, guidelines, and standards prescribed for the VPP implementation are summarized. RESs have a significant effect on VPP framework coordination, and so one important aspect related to RESs scheduling in VPP is explained in this article. Bidding strategy optimization problems, the participation of the electric market, and technical innovation reforms are discussed in line with the VPP. This review gives a comprehensive outline of transforming micro‐grid to VPP and conveys much information to researchers, consumers, prosumers, and utility operators.

Several issues have been reported with the expansion of the electric power grid and the increasing use of intermittent power sources, such as the need for expensive transmission lines and the issue of cascading blackouts, which can adversely affect critical infrastructures. Microgrids (MG) has been widely accepted as a viable solution to improve grid reliability and resiliency, ensuring continuous power supply to loads. However, to ensure the effective operation of the Distributed Energy Resources (DER), Microgrids need to have Energy Management and Control Systems (EMCS). Therefore, considerable research has been conducted to achieve smooth profiles in grid parameters during operation at optimum running cost. This paper aims to provide a review of EMCS techniques that have evolved in recent years. Firstly, the fundamentals of microgrids are discussed for a general overview of the field. Then, a critical literature review is undertaken for the various methods applied for EM optimization in microgrid applications. Multiple factors have been explored in the objective functions throughout this review, including MG daily operational costs, energy storage degradation, revenue through trading with the grid or other parties, and Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. A review of control systems has been conducted next by categorizing them based on the different applications in MGs for stable operation. This paper also focuses on IEEE standards related to MG operation and control to facilitate other researchers to build upon a standardized set of rules and to enhance the interoperability of the diverse EMCS techniques.

“…The primary purpose of the PMC-based system is to meet the power requirements of the load, while secondary goals include preserving the state of charge of the battery bank, avoiding power outages, and maximizing the useful life of the batteries. The authors in (Dashtdar et al, 2022) proposed an EMS for a residential MG system in order to reduce the cost of operating the MG sources. The suggested EMS method is implemented on the combined heat power (CHP) with batteries and the obtained results show the effect of the battery on MG participation in load response.…”

The purpose of this paper is to propose an energy management strategy (EMS) based on flatness control method for a standalone hybrid photovoltaic-battery system. The goal of the proposed method is to use non-linear flatness theory to develop an efficient EMS in order to provide a stable DC bus voltage and an optimal power sharing process between the solar array and the battery. The suggested EMS is responsible for balancing the power reference for the PV system and the battery while keeping the DC bus voltage steady and performing at its reference value. In order to maximize the PV’s power, a perturb and observe with a variable step size (VSSP and P&O) based maximum power point tracking (MPPT) method with a DC/DC boost converter was used. In addition, a DC/DC bidirectional converter was developed to control the charging and discharging process of the battery. Moreover, the proposed EMS strategy was verified in a MATLAB®/Simulink-based simulation environment by subjecting it to a variety of scenarios, including those with varying degrees of irradiation and sudden changes in load. The obtained results show that the presented EMS method was able to keep the bus voltage stable despite changes in load or solar radiation. Furthermore, the EMS By minimizing bus voltage spikes, the technique also ensured excellent power quality which helped the battery’s operation in terms of lifetime and efficiency. Finally, the suggested strategy has a minimum overshoot rate in the bus voltage and higher tracking efficiency compared with the classical load following (LF) strategy under various load conditions.
