Applying High Performance Computing to Transmission-Constrained Stochastic Unit Commitment for Renewable Energy Integration

Applying High Performance Computing to Multi-Area Stochastic Unit Commitment for Renewable Penetration

We present a parallel implementation of a Lagrangian relaxation algorithm for solving stochastic unit commitment subject to uncertainty in wind power supply and generator and transmission line failures. We present a scenario selection algorithm inspired by importance sampling in order to formulate the stochastic unit commitment problem and validate its performance by comparing it to a stochasti...

Stochastic and Deterministic Unit Commitment Considering Uncertainty and Variability Reserves for High Renewable Integration

The uncertain and variable nature of renewable energy sources in modern power systems raises significant challenges in achieving the dual objective of reliable and economically efficient system operation. To address these challenges, advanced scheduling strategies have evolved during the past years, including the co-optimization of energy and reserves under deterministic or stochastic Unit Comm...

Multiarea Stochastic Unit Commitment for High Wind Penetration in a Transmission Constrained Network

In this paper we present a unit commitment model for studying the impact of large-scale wind integration in power systems with transmission constraints and system component failures. The model is formulated as a two-stage stochastic program with uncertain wind production in various locations of the network as well as generator and transmission line failures. We present a scenario selection algo...

Stochastic Security Constrained Transmission and Battery Expansion Planning In Integrated Gas-Electricity Systems Considering High Penetration of Renewable Resources..

In this study, a new model is proposed to solve the problem of transmission and battery expansion planning considering integrated electricity and gas systems. The presented model is a bi-level stochastic planning model, where transmission and battery expansion planning modeling is done on one level, and gas network modeling is done on the other level. Here, the impact of the high penetration of...
