Abstract: Renewables are going to make our planet a better place to live. These clean resources of energy can bring a handful of advantages to the future electricity industries. Nevertheless, the large percentage of renewables integration can cause some operational issues, in power systems, which are needed to be identified and coped with. This paper defines, classifies and discusses the latest flexibility treatments in power system based on a comprehensive literature study. The current work specifically considers the abilities, barriers, and inherent attributes of power systems’ potential to deal with high integration of Variable Generations (VGs) in future flexible power systems.
