Planning for variability in power systems is becoming more and more important as penetrations of variable generation increases worldwide. Flexibility, or operability of portfolios has previously been implicitly delivered in planning approaches. This paper seeks to make explicit a system's flexibility ...
Initially, the flexibility in power systems has been defined as the ability of the system generators to react to unexpected changes in load or system components [1]. Recently, it has been recognized as a concept that was introduced to the literature by organizations such as the International Ene...

Power systems are increasingly stressed by variableand unpredictable generation from various sources. We identifythe qualitative framework of exibility as an adequate toolto specify requirements that allow the system to handle thisvariability. An open problem is the quantication of technicalexibility that ...
mainly introduces the challenges and opportunities of the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, especially wind power, in power systems. It reviews various services and strategies that can enhance the flexibility and security of power systems in the presence of high wind power uncertainty....
Control functions imply a set of corrective procedures which could be taken in a described operation process over a responding time interval. The set of control functions depends on the response time period. Figure1depicts the common corrective functions in power systems for different time intervals....
The role of dispatchability in China's power system decarbonization As the decarbonization of the electric power sector gathers pace,electric power systems will need to evolve in multiple ways:larger amounts of intermittent renewables will need to be deployed,as will dispatchable power generators,trans...
Modern power systems are undergoing a transitional phase, increasingly incorporating renewable energy sources (RES) to harness their economic and environmental benefits. The main challenge with this transitional phase is the management of the increased variability and uncertainty in the power balance. Legac...

Flexibility in power systems is typically understood as the potential of the system to increase or decrease its generation relative to the scheduled generation as needed or when valuable. It is generally determined in terms of the power, energy storage and ramping capability, and capacity adequacy ...
