Abstract

The construction of a virtual power plant (VPP) represents a powerful approach for harnessing the adjustable capacity of flexible resources. VPP actively participates in transmission network dispatching by aggregating these flexible resources. However, existing practical implementations and research cannot describe the influence of renewable energy's inherent unpredictability on the dispatching boundaries of VPPs. This shortfall leads to a lack of organic coordination between flexible resources and the power transmission network. Therefore, this paper suggests a way to characterize the dispatching boundaries of VPPs based on the concept of flexible operation region (FOR), aiming to better incorporate the flexible resources of decentralized access and lessen the issue of insufficient computing power caused by unified optimization. Initially, an analytical model for the VPP's FOR is presented, followed by dimensionality reduction of the FOR to the VPP's gateway. Subsequently, participation in transmission network scheduling is facilitated using an equivalent dimensionality reduction model. Based on standard example testing, the proposed method's effectiveness and accuracy have been verified in this paper.
