Co-optimising frequency-containment services from zero-carbon sources in electricity grids dominated by Renewable Energy Sources by Aimon Mirza Baig, Luis Badesa, Yi Wang, Goran Strbac

“…The ancillary services dynamics are then mapped into the optimisation through frequency-security constraints obtained by solving the swing equation, eventually formulated as a Mixed-Integer Second-Order Cone Program (MISOCP). The proposed constraints enforce that sufficient ancillary services are scheduled to maintain system stability, while taking advantage of the economic savings and emissions reduction from zero-carbon sources. …”
