Multi-Objective Optimization Scheduling Strategy for Virtual Power Plants Considering Green Certificate Trading and Carbon Trading

With the construction of a new power system and the implementation of carbon neutrality goals, the green and low-carbon operation of virtual power plants has become one of the important research directions. However, the economic efficiency of their optimized dispatch is affected by the constraints of the multi-market of green certificate - electricity - carbon and the uncertainties of wind power, photovoltaics, and electricity prices. Therefore, this paper proposes a multi-objective optimization dispatch research method for virtual power plants considering green certificate trading and carbon trading. Through a comparative analysis of two cases, the specific benefits of virtual power plants participating in market trading are examined. The results verify that the proposed method can effectively consider the net benefits of various market transactions and provide references for virtual power plants participating in the green certificate - electricity - carbon market.
