Abstract :
Distributed generation refers to the generation of electricity near the consumer's location using small-scale generation units. Scattered energy sources are renewable energies and combined production (simultaneous production of electricity and heat). A virtual power plant refers to a set of distributed production facilities such as wind turbines, solar power plants, small hydropower plants and any power generation sources that have the ability to cooperate with each other in a local area and are all controlled by a central control unit. The virtual power plant has been subjected to various validation tests and network connections (connected to the network and off the network) and has a high level of credibility and competence. This research includes an overview of some virtual power plant ideas that express a better understanding and a more general vision in this field, some general control structures are described and experimental fields are introduced. The distribution network is represented by the virtual power plant. The result shows that with the presence of storage resources and the possibility of being in the reservation market, the virtual power plant will benefit more.
