Virtual Power Plant: New Solution for Managing Distributed Generations in Decentralized Power Systems

Real-time small signal stability analysis of the power electronic-based components in contemporary distribution systems

“…However, there are some issues with large integration of RERs, Distributed Generations (DGs), and PECs. For instance, there is energy security and reliability concern that was addressed with the idea of Virtual Power Plant (VPP) in previous studies [1][2][3][4]. Furthermore, PECs may have a significant effect on the stability of the large scale power systems, particularly, in a large scale power system that is highly penetrated with PECs.…”

Fuzzy logic-based water heating control methodology for the efficiency enhancement of hybrid PV–PEM electrolyser systems

“…The production of energy is becoming increasingly decentralized [2]. For small and medium generation purposes, RE systems can be conveniently used.…”

Multiple Objective Compromised Method for Power Management in Virtual Power Plants

“…The structure of VPPs has been discussed in plenty of papers [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]18,19]. The VPP is considered as technical (TVPP) and commercial (CVPP) for its dual roles.…”

“…A central manager defines each working set point on the basis of economic and technical criteria, thus the defined electrical and thermal trends are supplied at the lowest cost and high stability [6]. Under the control of the VPP manager, a mixed group of generation sources including renewable generation have additional benefits in improving supplying reliability, voltage stability, and power quality, as well as in reducing the overall costs and particularly any financial risk associated with imbalance and fuel price volatility [7,8]. So it is important to allocate the energy in VPP reasonably to guarantee these technical and financial benefits in correct working conditions.…”
