SIMMRES PROJECT [Oct/2017 - Aug/2019]
SIMMRES delves with the impact that national and regional market mechanisms have on the share of RES in the electricity demand and with the different stages of the China's electricity market reform.
The project leverages the Portuguese and European experience to study the mechanisms for the integration of RES in the electricity demand that are suitable for China's electric power market environment.
It addresses the resource allocation for peak regulation and the coordination mechanisms of ancillary services aiming to encourage renewables consumption in China, which will effectively improve the level of China's renewables consumption and boost the development of China's electric power market.
The study of the scheduling strategy for the power grid peak and frequency regulation is also significant for Portugal.
The project develops case studies based on scenarios from Portugal and China's typical region, taking into account the interconnections with neighboring control zones.
