This book provides an overview of virtual power plants as a key technology in future energy communities and active distribution and transmission networks for managing distributed energy resources, providing local and global services, and facilitating market participation of small-scale managing distributed energy resources, and prosumers.
This book provides a general overview of virtual power plants (VPP) as a key technology in future energy communities and active distribution and transmission networks for managing distributed energy resources, providing local and global services, and facilitating market participation of small-scale managing distributed energy resources and prosumers. The book also aims at describing some practical solutions, business models, and novel architectures for the implementation of VPPs in the real world.
Each chapter of the book begins with the fundamental structure of the problem required for a rudimentary understanding of the methods described. It provides a clear picture for practical implementation of VPP through novel technologies such as blockchain, digital twin, and distributed ledger technology.
The book will help the electrical and power engineers, undergraduate, graduate students, research scholars, and utility engineers to understand the emerging solutions regarding the VPP concept lucidly.
1. Practical Implementation of VPP in the Real World Based on Emerging Technologies.
2. Virtual Power Plant with Demand Response Control in Aggregated Distributed Energy Resources of Microgrid.
3. Exploiting the Flexibility Value of Virtual Power Plants through Market Participation in Smart Energy Communities.
4. Renewable Energy Community VPP Concept Design and Modelling for Sustainable Islands.
5. A Comprehensive Smart Energy Management Strategy for TVPP, CVPP, and Energy Communities.
6. Virtual Energy Storage Systems for Virtual Power Plants.
7. Centralized and Decentralized Optimization Approaches for Energy Management within The VPP.
8. Decision-Making Frameworks for Virtual Power Plant Aggregators in Wholesale Energy and Ancillary Service Markets.
