Abstract

In this study, The Virtual Power Plant (VPP) solution platform considered in this study minimizes the cost and investment risk associated with the construction of power generation and transmission facilities. In addition, it includes a Demand Response (DR) program operation function to meet consumers' electricity demand. With the introduction of VPP, it is possible to provide more eco-friendly and efficient power by responding to changes in consumer load in real time through existing generators and DR programs without large-scale facility investment in power generation and transmission/distribution sectors. In order to link the communication device to the solar power and ESS linkage device, it is necessary to transmit data in the control/state between the device device and the edge system and develop an IoT device and interworking platform (OneM2M).

본 연구에서 고찰되는 가상발전소(VPP; Virtual Power Plant) 솔루션 플랫폼은 전력회사가 발전·송전설비 등의 건설에 소요되는 비용과 이와 관련된 투자리스크를 최소화 한다. 또한, 소비자의 전력 수요를 충족할 수 있도록 수요대응(DR; Demand Response) 프로그램운영 기능을 포함시켜 VPP도입으로 발전 및 송·배전부문에 대한 대규모 설비투자 없이 현존하는 발전기와 DR 프로그램 등을 통해서 소비자의 부하변화에 실시간으로 대처하여 보다 친환경적이고 효율적인 전력공급이 가능하도록 한다. 태양광 및 ESS 연동 장치에 통신 Device를 연동하기 위해서는 Device 장치와 Edge System간 제어·상태에서 데이터를 전달하고 IoT Device 및 연동 플랫폼 개발(OneM2M)이 필요하다.
