The continuous increase in the proportion of new energy connected to the grid is beginning to restrict the frequency response ability of power systems. As a result, the spatial and temporal distribution characteristics in these systems are significant, increasing the threats to frequency security. The traditional single-unit power system frequency response analysis model is no longer able to satisfy the frequency analysis requirements of new power systems. Therefore, it is necessary to explore more accurate and efficient frequency response analysis models and resources that can improve the frequency response ability of power systems in regulation methods. This Special Session aims to gather experts and scholars in related fields to exchange ideas and jointly improve the frequency security and stability levels of new power systems.
- Modeling, evaluation, mechanism analysis, and optimization control of frequency security in new power systems;
- Optimization control and configuration strategies of new power systems considering frequency dynamic characteristics;
- Optimization configuration, dispatch, and control strategies for flexible resources such as energy storage and virtual power plants to participate in frequency response;
- Coordination control of multi-type resources to provide frequency regulation in new power systems;
- Multi-temporal and -spatial couplings and wide-area control technology for inertia–power–frequency in new power systems;
- Power–electricity balancing and coordination of inter-provincial mutual aid dispatch for multi-level power grids;
- Market mechanisms for frequency security in new power systems.
