A research on wind and thermal power joint ancillary service market behaviors

Wind and thermal power joint ancillary service is an effective and efficient way to guarantee the safe and stable operation of electricity systems, to reduce service cost and improve the integration of wind power. In order to make a further research on wind and thermal power joint ancillary service market behaviors, this paper, based on the evolutionary game theory, and in the condition of bounded rationality and incomplete information, simulates the transaction behaviors to reach equilibrium of wind and thermal power vendors in the ancillary service market and the process of their gaming. Thereby, the market behaviors of both wind and thermal power vendors in ancillary service market in different conditions are analyzed. The findings are expected to provide a basis for the macro-control of wind and thermal power joint ancillary service market.
