This paper provides an optimization strategy for flexible operation at the system level to guide the real-time flexible ramping of the power grid. Firstly, the concept of regional power grid flexibility is clarified, and the ramping factor is proposed as a flexibility metric. On this basis, taking the output priority of each node as the objective function and considering constraints such as line flow, power balance, and system flexibility, a mathematical model for regional power grid transmitting flexible power externally is proposed. Compared with the traditional models, this model focuses more on flexibility rather than economy. A case analysis based on the improved IEEE 30-Bus System verifies the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed strategy and its advantages over the traditional models.
