Abstract At present, the virtual power plant is still in stage of theoretical research and early pilot development. It has not yet formed a systematic comprehensive Distributed Energy Resource (DER) modeling, market participation mechanism, operational risk management, optimization decision-making method, operating platform. Given massive DERs interconnection requirements system, this paper pro...

Distributed, consensus-based algorithms have emerged as a promising approach for the coordination of distributed energy resources (DER) due to their communication, computation, privacy and reliability advantages over centralized approaches. However, state-of-the-art address DER problem in independent time periods therefore are inherently unable capture time-coupling operating characteristics fl...

This paper presents one of the first real-life demonstrations coordinated and distributed resource control for secondary frequency response in a power distribution grid. A series tests involved up to 69 heterogeneous active energy resources consisting air handling units, unidirectional bidirectional electric vehicle charging stations, battery storage system, 107 passive building loads solar pho...
