A Virtual Power Plant Architecture for the Demand-Side Management of Smart Prosumers

A Virtual Power Plant Architecture for the Demand-Side Management of Smart Prosumers

In this paper, we present a conceptual study on a Virtual Power Plant (VPP) architecture for the optimal management of Distributed Energy Resources (DERs) owned by prosumers participating in Demand-Side Management (DSM) programs. Compared to classical VPP architectures, which aim to aggregate severa...
