Hydropower Reservoir Operation using Standard Operating and Standard Hedging Policies
نویسنده
چکیده
Standard operating policy and hedging policies are commonly used for reservoir operation for municipal or irrigation water supply. Application of these policies to hydropower reservoir operation is complex. In this paper, new standard operating policies and standard hedging policy are proposed for hydropower reservoir operation. The newly proposed policies were applied to the operation of Indira Sagar reservoir in India and demonstrated.

Optimization of cascade hydropower system operation by genetic algorithm to maximize clean energy output
Background: Several reservoir systems have been constructed for hydropower generation around the world. Hydropower offers an economical source of electricity with reduce carbon emissions. Therefore, it is such a clean and renewable source of energy. Reservoirs that generate hydropower are typically operated with the goal of maximizing energy revenue. Yet, reservoir systems are inefficiently ope...
متن کاملReservoir Operation During Droughts
Drought is an inevitable part of the world’s climate. It occurs in wet as well as in dry regions. Therefore, planning for drought and mitigating its impacts is essential. In this study, a hedging rule is developed using the zero/one mixed integer-programming approach. Furthermore, some procedures are introduced to ease the computational burden inherent in integer programming. Hedging rules are ...
متن کاملHedging Policy for Reservoir System Operation: A Case Study of Mun Bon and Lam Chae Reservoirs
A reservoir operation model of Mun Bon and Lam Chae reservoirs was developed to simulate reservoir operation using a hedging policy. A variety of common hedging forms was specified, including one-point hedging, two-point hedging and zone-based hedging. The simulated results were compared with the standard operating policy and probability based rule curve. The percentage of failure frequency, av...
متن کاملDeveloping optimal operating reservoir rule-curves in drought periods
In this study a simulation-optimization model is developed for deriving operation rule-curves in drought periods. To each reservoir, two rule-curves with adjustable monthly levels are introduced dividing the reservoir capacity into three zones between the normal water level and minimum operation level. To each zone of a reservoir and for each month of the year a hedging coefficient is introd...
متن کاملA Two-Step Approach for Analytical Optimal Hedging with Two Triggers
Hedging is widely used to mitigate severe water shortages in the operation of reservoirs during droughts. Rationing is usually instituted with one hedging policy, which is based only on one trigger, i.e., initial storage level or current water availability. It may perform poorly in balancing the benefits of a release during the current period versus those of carryover storage during future drou...
