Medium/long-term virtual power plant aggregation method based on capacity leasing

VPP is an important form of energy organization in the new power system. This paper presents a medium/long-term virtual power plant aggregation method, which forms a VPP through capacity leasing. A VPP risk decision-making model is provided to select suitable distributed energy resources to form the VPP. The calculation based on actual data shows that: 1) Although VPPs with medium to long-term alliances can operate normally under existing conditions, there are significant risks involved; 2) The main tools for controlling risks are: selecting appropriate distributed resource combinations, utilizing forward contracts, and participating in frequency regulation; 3) The risk decision-making tool for distributed energy resource alliance provided in this paper can provide effective decision support.
