dc.description.abstractThis paper proposes a new concept of Aviation-to-Grid (A2G) that utilizes electric aircraft (EA) charging to provide flexibility to the power grid. Smart EA charging system with battery swap method is developed using PV, gas turbine, and grid electricity. Hourly energy dispatch strategy is produced based on the mixed integer linear programming method to meet electrified aviation and provide A2G frequency response. Case studies are conducted in 8 major UK airports considering seasonal flight schedules and power system scenarios. Results show that the EA charging system can provide effective primary and secondary frequency response to improve the frequency nadir by 0.2 - 0.3 Hz under grid disturbance. The total A2G frequency response capacity across the 8 UK airport can reach up to 1,300 MW overnight and up to 900 MW daytime. Annual A2G frequency response revenue is 46.58 million pounds, which can cover 19.8% to 30% of EA charging costs.en_UK
