Scientists from the Shanghai Advanced Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications have developed a groundbreaking approach to support future power systems in achieving low-carbon emission targets.

The research team, in a study published in Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, focused on integrating large-scale electric vehicle clusters into the power grid as a case study.

The researchers introduced a comprehensive framework encompassing physical flow, behavioral flow, and information flow interactions. They examined the performance characteristics, resource aggregation, scheduling strategies, and market mechanisms associated with electric vehicle clusters' provision of power system reserve. To address the heterogeneity in users' decision-making behavior, the team proposed a hybrid simulation technology that combines human participants and computer multi-agents.

Furthermore, the study explored solutions for global communication coverage, frequency band interference, and communication security, with customized priority protection. The findings offer valuable technical support and viable directions for diverse distributed reserve resources, including scientific installations, office buildings, and industrial and agricultural production loads. By enhancing the flexible regulation capability of future power systems, these advancements contribute to the transformation of energy consumption into a low-carbon environment, aligning with the goals of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality.

The research represents a significant step toward building a sustainable power infrastructure, where renewable energy sources and innovative approaches merge to support the transition to a low-carbon future.
