Scheduling the Maintenance of Wind Farms for Minimizing Production Loss
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the extensive and worldwide increase of the market share of wind energy, the optimal operation of wind farms gains an ever growing significance. The planning and scheduling of maintenance operations is both decisive for turbine availability and a key component of the operational costs. This paper introduces a formal model of wind farm maintenance, and proposes a mixed-integer programming formulation for the problem of optimizing detailed maintenance schedules. Initial results are presented and directions for future research are pointed out.

متن کاملScheduling 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...

Wind energy has become an important source of energy in the last years, proven to be an alternative to fossil power production. The advances in technology have allowed to exploit this resource in new environments. While offshore wind farms projects are growing at important rates, onshore farms are still the main contributors of this energy source. However, challenges to make wind farms projects...
متن کاملA Reliability based Modelling and Optimization of an Integrated Production and Preventive Maintenance Activities in Flowshop Scheduling Problem
Traditional scheduling problems with the batch processing machines (BPM) assume that machines are continuously available, and no time is needed for their preventive maintenance (PM). In this paper, we study a realistic variant of flowshop scheduling which integrates flow shop batch processing machines (FBPM) and preventive maintenance for minimizing the makespan. In order to tackle the given pr...
