A Novel Approach for Determining Operating Reserve Required Capacity
In this paper, we present the technical fundamentals of frequency control and survey reserve as ancillary
services in power systems from various countries and criteria. In this first part, we explain the basic control
scheme for frequency control. Definitions, roles, requirement of operating reserve are then described. Finally,
we suppose a new approach to determine the required capacity of operating reserve in the consideration of
relationship capacity price and energy price of operating reserve under simultaneous auction
