Virtual Power Plant

A Virtual Power Plant is an energy management system that uses digital platforms to aggregate distributed resources such as distributed photovoltaics, energy storage systems, EV charging stations, commercial and industrial loads, and controllable power-consuming equipment. It participates in power dispatching, demand response, and electricity market trading. It covers load aggregation, energy management, intelligent dispatching, demand-side response, storage coordination, distributed energy access, and power trading. With the development of new power systems, virtual power plants are becoming an important way to improve grid flexibility and support renewable energy integration.
