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 different scenarios for wind farms. First, unit commitment solved in master problem. Then, scenarios for presenting volatile nature of wind power simulated. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of supposed unit commitment for managing security of power system by considering volatility of wind power generation.
