Abstract:
A virtual power plant (VPP) is a distributed power plant aggregating the capacity of multiple small distributed energy resources (DERs) and acts as a single entity at the energy markets. The VPP needs a secure communication infrastructure to monitor, coordinate, and control the DERs. This work describes how a smart meter gateway (SMGW) according to the German regulations can be used to provide a secure communication channel between the central VPP aggregator and distributed DER controllers.
