Abstract
With the development of virtual power plants (VPP), its output and load characteristics are the key factors affecting the capacity configuration of virtual power plants. Therefore, in order to reduce the cost of VPP capacity allocation, it is necessary to study the output and load characteristics of VPP under different scenarios. This paper first considers the uncertainty of the VPP, and builds the VPP scheduling optimization model to maximize the expected profit. Secondly, discover the key factors that affect the output and load characteristics of the VPP. Finally, different scenarios are set, and a VPP is used for example analysis. The results of the calculation example show that the degree of compensation of flexible load and the reliability requirements of energy use are the key factors affecting the load of the VPP. The wind and solar load forecast accuracy and the efficiency of each unit are the key factors affecting the output of the VPP.
