contents The growing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) into the power grid necessitates an effective coordination strategy to maximize their benefits. Acting as an aggregator of DERs, a virtual power plant (VPP) facilitates this coordination, thereby amplifying their impact on the transmission level of the power grid. Further, a demand response program enhances the scheduling approach by managing the energy demands in parallel with the uncertain energy outputs of the DERs. This work presents a stochastic incentive-based demand response model for the scheduling operation of VPP comprising solar-powered generating stations, battery swapping stations, electric vehicle charging stations, and consumers with controllable loads. The work also proposes a priority mechanism to consider the individual preferences of electric vehicle users and consumers with controllable loads. The scheduling approach for the VPP is framed as a multi-objective optimization problem, normalized using the utopia-tracking method. Subsequently, the normalized optimization problem is transformed into a stochastic formulation to address uncertainties in energy demand from charging stations and controllable loads. The proposed VPP scheduling approach is addressed on a 33-node distribution system simulated using MATLAB software, which is further validated using a real-time digital simulator.
