Abstract
The booming of renewable energy generation triggers high levels of uncertainty for power systems. The implementation of flexibility enhancement projects for thermal power units has become the main measure to accommodate the renewable energy resource. However, there are various flexibility enhancement technologies and lack of systematic review concerning technical adaptability. This paper proposes an adaptability evaluation system of flexibility enhancement technologies to provide guidance for thermal power plants. Firstly, the systematic review of flexibility enhancement technologies for thermal power units is formulated based on transformation purpose, such as enhancing the negative peak regulation capacity, and improving the AGC (Automatic generation control) regulation rates. Then, the adaptability evaluation system for flexibility enhancement technologies are proposed. This paper can help thermal power units choose the most adaptive flexibility enhancement technology and improve their own competitiveness in ancillary service market.
