Two-Stage Congestion Management Considering Virtual Power Plant With Cascade Hydro-Photovoltaic-Pumped Storage Hybrid Generation

Stochastic Congestion Management Considering Power System Uncertainties

Congestion management in electricity markets is traditionally done using deterministic values of power system parameters considering a fixed network configuration. In this paper, a stochastic programming framework is proposed for congestion management considering the power system uncertainties. The uncertainty sources that are modeled in the proposed stochastic framework consist of contingencie...

Study on unit commitment problem considering wind power and pumped hydro energy storage

The stochastic and intermittent characteristic of wind power present great challenge to the operation of power system. A novel unit commitment problem (UCP) model is proposed in this paper. As the status of thermal units need to be described by binary number, Binary Particle Swarm Optimization (BPSO) algorithm is proposed to find the optimum schedule scheme. Case studies on the 10 units system ...

Feasibility Study of Pumped Hydro Energy Storage for Ramea Wind-Diesel Hybrid Power System

Value of Pumped-Hydro Storage in a Hybrid Energy Generation and Allocation System

Transition from fossil fuels to renewable sources is inevitable. In this direction, variation and intermittency of renewables can be integrated into the grid by means of hybrid systems which operate as a combination of alternative resources, energy storage and long distance transmission lines. In this study, we propose a two-stage stochastic mixed-integer programming model for sizing an integra...
