Abstract

Electrical system operators and automatic controllers use Operating Reserve (OR) power to mitigate the unexpected imbalance between power supply and load demand. This backup power should be carefully sized and dispatched to reduce operation costs while keeping a satisfying security level. With the integration of small sized intermittent renewable generators in distribution networks, the allocation of OR where they are connected is interesting in order to compensate directly these uncertainty sources and maintain the security and reliability. In this paper, we consider the provision of OR directly by distributed PV generators combined with energy storage systems. For an urban microgrid, comparisons are given with the OR provision by a micro gas turbine. A method for dynamic joint dispatching of OR power on both generator types is presented and tested. Results show new insights in the possibilities of OR dispatching with renewable energy sources.
