Using Coalitions of Wind Generators and Electric Vehicles for Effective Energy Market Participation

Using Coalitions of Wind Generators and Electric Vehicles for Effective Energy Market Participation
Using Coalitions of Wind Generators and Electric Vehicles for Effective Energy Market Participation
Wind power is becoming a significant source of electricity in many countries. However, the inherent uncertainty of wind generators does not allow them to participate in the forward electricity markets. In this paper, we foster a tighter integration of wind power into electricity markets by using a multi-agent coalition formation approach to form virtual power plants of wind generators and electric vehicles. We identify the four different phases in the life-cycle of a VPP, each characterised by its own challenges that need to be addressed.

Abstract

Wind power is becoming a significant source of electricity in many countries. However, the inherent uncertainty of wind generators does not allow them to participate in the forward electricity markets. In this paper, we foster a tighter integration of wind power into electricity markets by using a multi-agent coalition formation approach to form virtual power plants of wind generators and electric vehicles. We identify the four different phases in the life-cycle of a VPP, each characterised by its own challenges that need to be addressed.
