On the Importance of Self owned Power Plants Participating in the Adjustment of Supply and Demand of Power Network under the Reform of Power System

Abstract

Centralized power generation by self owned power plants of high energy consumption enterprises will lead to insufficient peak shaving capacity of the power grid. Once the self owned power plants have operational problems, they will easily lead to large-scale blackouts, which will have a great impact on power supply reliability. The national electric power system reform opinion points out that the regulation focus of ensuring the balance of power supply and demand in the power grid should be shifted from the generation side to the load side, and the potential advantages of self owned power plants that combine power generation resources with large loads can be utilized. Self owned power plants participate in the equal management and fair competition of public power plants, can better play its role while improving the supervision of self owned power plants, which is conducive to maintaining the order of the power market and improving the stability of the implementation of power reform.
