Single-phase bidding for modular energy storage cabinets for virtual power plants
Abstract—This paper proposes a stochastic optimization-based energy and reserve bidding strategy for a virtual power plant (VPP) with mobile energy storages, renewable energy resources (RESs) and load demands at multiple buses. In this context, this paper. . This study focuses on maximizing VPP profits through smart bidding strategies across Day-Ahead (DA), Real-Time (RT), and Balancing Markets, while considering the operational constraints of Solar Power Plants (SPP), Wind Power Plants (WPP), and microturbines (MT). To this aim, a robust optimization algorithm is developed to account for the asymmetric nature of the. .
