a coal-fired power plant moonlighting as a giant "energy bank." Sounds like sci-fi? Welcome to 2025, where power plant virtual energy storage is flipping the script on how we
A virtual power plant (VPP), as a combination of dispersed generator units, controllable load and energy storage system (ESS), provides an efficient solution for energy
The integration of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs), particularly Renewable Energy Sources (RESs), into power systems has seen a significant increase in the past few
As the climate crisis worsens, power grids are gradually transforming into a more sustainable state through renewable energy sources (RESs), energy storage systems (ESSs),

The proposed virtual power plant integrates photovoltaic (PV) and wind turbine (WT) systems into a microgrid topology, facilitating efficient energy management across generation, storage, distribution, and consumption components. Communication systems enable real-time monitoring and control for optimal system operation.
Virtual power plants (VPP) are an emerging concept that can flexibly integrate distributed energy resources (DERs), managing manage the power output of each DER unit, as well as the power consumption of loads, to balance electricity supply and demand in real time.
The transition to renewable energy sources and distributed energy generation (DG) has spurred the global evolution of energy production methods. However, virtual power plants (VPPs) face challenges due to fluctuations in renewable energy sources (RES) production, such as those from photovoltaics and wind turbines.
Considering the multi-agent integrated virtual power plant (VPP) taking part in the electricity market, an energy trading model based on the sharing mechanism is proposed to explore the effect of the shared energy storage on multiple virtual power plants (MVPPs).
