The growing importance of power system flexibility in the Clean Energy Revolution
In recent years, power system flexibility has become a common by-word for the energy transition. Simply put, power system flexibility is the ability of the power system to respond in a timely manner to variations in electricity supply and demand. A fast growing body of literature highlights the increasing importance of flexibility in power system operations and the ability of flexible resources within the generation mix to accommodate higher shares of variable renewable energy integration. In this talk, I will provide a comprehensive overview of power system flexibility as an effective way to maintain the power balance.
