Electric vehicles can become integral parts of a smart grid, since they are capable of
providing valuable services to power systems other than just consuming power. On the …

The term smart grid refers to a modernization of the electrical network consisting in the
integration of various technologies such as dispersed generation, dispatchable loads …

The evolution of energy markets is accelerating in the direction of a greater reliance upon
distributed energy resources (DERs). To manage this increasing two-way complexity, virtual …

Trend-setting countries have promoted or even employed an increased number of electric
vehicles (EVs) and other distributed energy resources (DERs) in their power systems. This …

With the high penetration of large-scale distributed renewable energy generation, the power
system is facing enormous challenges in terms of the inherent uncertainty of power …

Abstract Power-to-gas (P2G) provides a new means for accommodating abandoned new
energy that will support the optimal operation of virtual power plants (VPPs) in the future. In …

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are seen to be one of the solutions for China to reduce both
greenhouse gas emissions and dependency on oil importation in the transport sector. Fully …

Abstract Virtual Power Plant (VPP) is introduced as a tool for the integration of distributed
generations, energy storages and participation of consumers in demand response …

Due to the high penetration of Distributed Generations (DGs) in the network and the
presently involving competition in all electrical energy markets, Virtual Power Plant (VPP) as …

This paper presents an integrated tool to mitigate power quality issues in a microgrid
