In this work, we present a detailed model of a Renewable Energy Source (RES)-based Virtual Power Plant (VPP) that participates in Day-Ahead Market (DAM) and Intra-Day Market (IDM) with dispatchable and non-dispatchable RESs and flexible…
The notion of Virtual Power Plant (VPP) has been used many times in last years in power systems and for several reasons. As a general trend, the behavior of a classic synchronous generator is to be emulated for a class of conventional grid…
The declining provision of inertia by synchronous generators in modern power systems necessitates aggregating distributed energy resources (DERs) into virtual power plants (VPPs) to unlock their potential in delivering inertia and primary…
The integration of various energy resources with wind farms, results in improved market-aware management of wind generation variations. Consequently, the proposed method minimizes the negative impact associated with wind generation…
Distributed energy resources (DER) as non-wires alternatives, regardless of owner, have the potential to reduce system operating costs and delay system upgrades. However, it is difficult to determine the appropriate economic signal to…
Distribution networks with high penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) increasingly rely on communication networks to coordinate grid-interactive control. While many distributed control schemes have been proposed, they are often…
The electricity distribution grid was not designed to cope with load dynamics imposed by high penetration of electric vehicles, neither to deal with the increasing deployment of distributed Renewable Energy Sources. Distribution System…

The digitization and decentralization of the electric power grid are key thrusts for an economically and environmentally sustainable future. Towards this goal, distributed energy resources (DER), including rooftop solar panels, battery…
In many countries, the currently observable transformation of the power supply system from a centrally controlled system towards a complex "system of systems", comprising lots of autonomously interacting components, leads to a significant…
The increasing demand for direct electric energy in the grid is also tied to the increase of Electric Vehicle (EV) usage in the cities, which eventually will totally substitute combustion engine Vehicles. Nevertheless, this high amount of…
Distributed energy resources (DERs) in distribution networks can be aggregated as a virtual power plant (VPP) for transmission-level operations. A critical challenge for such coordination is the complexity of the AC-feasible power transfer…
