Abstract

The significant increase in the insertion of distributed generation in the electric power systems when carried out in a disorderly manner can cause disruption to the electric power system. In this sense, Virtual Power Plants (VPP) are presented as a solution to ensure, through a power management system, the best control actions to integrate the generation and demand pattern of each generating unit. Thus, this paper presents a literature review on VPP, introducing concepts, definitions, topologies, communication technologies used, and finally presenting the advantages and disadvantages on this topic.)
