Robust optimal operating strategy for photovoltaic‐storage‐load virtual power plant considering dual uncertainties of photovoltaic output and electricity prices

Energy Conversion and Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract The widespread integration of photovoltaic (PV) power, energy storage systems, and other demand‐side resources highlights the importance of optimal dispatching for the PV‐storage‐load virtual power plant (VPP). However, the fluctuation of the PV power generation and the uncertainty of the electricity prices exacerbate the economic operation ...
