Quantitative analysis of renewable energy consumption promoted by demand-side response based on time-series production simulation

The integration of high proportions of renewable energy into power systems has led to an increasing demand for flexible resources， highlighting the importance of flexible resources on demand side. Current research on demand-side response primarily focuses on peak load and lacks quantitative analysis on how demand-side response resources can enhance renewable energy consumption. To address this gap， this paper first develops a regulation model for various flexible single resources on demand side. Subsequently， it analyzes the regulation characteristics of single flexible resources and establishes an aggregation regulation model for a large number of these resources. The paper then constructs a quantitative analysis model of renewable energy consumption promoted by demand-side response based on time-series production simulation. Finally， it conducts a simulation study using a provincial power grid as a case study to analyze the impact of various types of demand-side response on improving renewable energy consumption. The results show that both shiftable load （SL） and transferable load （TL） can help enhance renewable energy consumption.
