On the participation of demand-side resources on the operation of small power systems

Research on system/regional dispatch center-based hierarchical zonal load dispatch model

“…With the development of new power systems, the scale of demand-side load resources represented by electric vehicles is expanding [1], which brings new challenges to the stable and economic operation of power systems [2]. Demand-side load regulation is characterized by rapidity and flexibility [3] and has great potential for application in cooperative grid operation regulation. For small and medium-sized customer loads that are decentralized and of small capacity, the individual load capacity does not reach the minimum level of direct participation in power operation regulation to participate in grid interaction [4].…”
