A Review of the Optimized Dispatch Strategy of Virtual Power Plants with Electric Vehicles
With the rapid development of distributed new energy sources such as wind power and photovoltaics,along with the widespread operation of electric vehicles,the trend of integrating these sources with more distributed energy and loads through virtual power plants is emerging.This paper introduces the basic structure of virtual power plants with electric vehicles.The optimization dispatching of such virtual power plants is mainly divided into two parts.The first part involves adopting reasonable and effective measures to guide the orderly charging of electric vehicles,which primarily includes price-based demand response and incentive-based demand response.Price-based demand response aims to guide the charging and discharging of electric vehicles at required times by setting different tariffs according to the load characteristics of electric vehicles and the operational needs of virtual power plants or power grids.Incentive-based demand response,based on time-of-use tariffs,takes additional in-centive measures to guide the charging and discharging of electric vehicles.The second part involves building an optimized dispatch model for the virtual power plant after ensuring the reliable connection of electric vehicles,and optimizing the dispatch of components within the virtual power plant.
