Virtual Power Plants for Grid Resilience:A Concise Overview of Research and Applications

扫码查看
The power grid is undergoing a transformation from synchronous generators(SGs)toward inverter-based resources(IBRs).The stochasticity,asynchronicity,and limited-inertia char-acteristics of IBRs bring about challenges to grid resilience.Vir-tual power plants(VPPs)are emerging technologies to improve the grid resilience and advance the transformation.By judi-ciously aggregating geographically distributed energy resources(DERs)as individual electrical entities,VPPs can provide capac-ity and ancillary services to grid operations and participate in electricity wholesale markets.This paper aims to provide a con-cise overview of the concept and development of VPPs and the latest progresses in VPP operation,with the focus on VPP scheduling and control.Based on this overview,we identify a few potential challenges in VPP operation and discuss the opportuni-ties of integrating the multi-agent system(MAS)-based strategy into the VPP operation to enhance its scalability,performance and resilience.
