Scheduling security constraint unit commitment for power system including stochastic wind power generation
This paper introduces a new approach for scheduling security constraint unit commitment (SCUC) including wind farms. Because of uncertainty in wind power production, we tried to develop a new method for incorporating wind power generation in power plant scheduling. For this, wind power generation modeled with unit commitment in a non-linear optimization problem and simulated by submitting diffe...
متن کاملIncorporating Wind Power Generation And Demand Response into Security-Constrained Unit Commitment
Wind generation with an uncertain nature poses many challenges in grid integration and secure operation of power system. One of these operation problems is the unit commitment. Demand Response (DR) can be defined as the changes in electric usage by end-use customers from their normal consumption patterns in response to the changes in the price of electricity over time. Further, DR can be also d...

متن کاملSolving the Hydrothermal Unit Commitment Problem via Lagrangian Relaxation and Augmented Lagrangian
This paper considers the hydrothermal unit commitment problem of power systems with high proportion of hydraulic generation. In this sense, a large-scale mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem for the two day cost-optimal generation of system is developed. The model involves a large number of mixed-integer decision variables and constraints linking time periods and operation units. A Lagra...
متن کاملAn adaptive modified firefly algorithm to unit commitment problem for large-scale power systems
Unit commitment (UC) problem tries to schedule output power of generation units to meet the system demand for the next several hours at minimum cost. UC adds a time dimension to the economic dispatch problem with the additional choice of turning generators to be on or off. In this paper, in order to improve both the exploitation and exploration abilities of the firefly algorithm (FA), a new mo...
