About this Research Topic
This Research Topic aims to exploit the operating flexibility potentials of the power system and achieve its flexible operations through advanced control and optimization approaches for renewable integration. The grid-friendly techniques for power sources, power demands, energy storage, and hybrid power plant (combination of different types of renewable plants) are all considered.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:
· Flexible control of traditional coal-fired power generations
· Operational control and optimization of hybrid power plants
· Combined heat and power decoupling and dispatch optimization
· Grid-friendly operation approaches of wind power and solar power
· Advanced prediction approaches for renewable energy and demand load
· Load demand response modeling and intelligent dispatch
· Vehicle to grid (V2G) modeling and optimal control
· Distributed energy resources control and optimization for grid services
· Coordination and complementation approaches of multiple power sources
· Energy storage support approaches for renewable integration
· Modeling and advanced control for Virtual Power Plant
· Efficient energy conversion and low emission methods during flexible operations
· Modeling and optimization for power system with high renewable penetration
· Load frequency control of power system with large-scale energy integration
Keywords: Renewable integration, Flexible resource, Power source, Power demand, Coordinated control
