However, the limited scope of energy consumption causes large-scale of clean energy sources to be abandoned in Sichuan province. In the meantime, the development of modern greenhouse cultivation has transformed the agriculture industry to have a brand-new type of electrical load in the grid. Consequently, the agricultural load can be used to consume the clean energy while facilitating plant growth. In this paper, an innovative agricultural load model is proposed based on crop evapotranspiration and daily light integration. Furthermore, the proposed agricultural load model is also applied to investigate the electricity consumption of five types of crop planting. The results illustrate that the power consumption is primarily driven by artificial lighting compensation system.enAttribution-NonCommercial 4.0 InternationalAgriculture load modelCrop evapotranspiration modelDaily light integration modelPower consumptionAgricultural Load Modeling Based on Crop Evapotranspiration and Light Integration for Economic Operation of Greenhouse Power SystemsArticle
