Abstract：Because of the heat capacity of buildings,there is a delay in the inner temperature changes when the power changes during the air conditioning cooling or heating process.And there is a range of comfort temperature for human body.Using these characteristics of "air conditioningbuilding" system,the electric power of air conditioner could perform active adjustment in a certain range according to the external needs while maintaining users' basic comfort.In this way,air conditioning load can be equivalent to a virtual energy storage device in the power grid.The energy model and power model of virtual storage are established to evaluate the influence of different factors on the virtual storage of air conditioning load.Considering the typical application of demand response,the control strategy of virtual energy storage is introduced preliminarily.Finally,based on the actual situation,an example is given to calculate the capacity of the air conditioning load.It verifies that virtual energy storage is practicable and valuable for the power grid regulation.
