Energy contracts management by stochastic programming techniques

چکیده
We consider the problem of optimal management of energy contracts, with bounds on the local (time step) amounts and global (whole period) amounts to be traded, integer constraint on the decision variables and uncertainty on prices only. After building a nite state Markov chain by using vectorial quantization tree method, we rely on the stochastic dual dynamic programming (SDDP) method to solve the continuous relaxation of this stochastic optimization problem. An heuristic for computing sub optimal solutions to the integer optimization problem, based on the Bellman values of the continuous relaxation, is provided. Combining the previous techniques, we are able to deal with high-dimension state variables problems. Numerical tests applied to realistic energy markets problems have been performed. Key-words: stochastic programming, multi-stage, dual dynamic programming, quantization tree. ∗ Total, Paris La Defense, COMMANDS team, INRIA-Saclay and CMAP, Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau, France ([email protected]). † COMMANDS team, INRIA-Saclay, CMAP, Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau, and Laboratoire de Finance des Marchés de l'Energie, Paris, France ([email protected]). ‡ Total, Paris La Defense, France ([email protected]). in ria -0 04 86 89 7, v er si on 2 1 Au g 20 11 Gestion de contrats d'énergie par des techniques de programmation stochastique Résumé : Nous considérons le problème de la gestion optimale de contrats d'énergie, avec bornes sur les quantités locales et globales, des contraintes d'intégrité sur les variables de décision et une incertitude ne portant que sur les prix. Après avoir construit une chaîne de Markov en état nie par la méthode d'arbre de quantisation, nous nous appuyons sur la méthode de programmation stochastique dynamique duale (SDDP) pour résoudre la relaxation continue de ce problème d'optimisation stochastique. Une heuristique de calcul de solutions sous optimales du problème en nombres entiers, basée sur les valeurs de Bellman du problème relaxé, est proposée. Combinant les deux techniques précédentes, nous sommes en mesure de traiter des problèmes de grande dimension. Des tests numériques appliqués à des problèmes réalistes de marchés de l'énergie ont été réalisés.

Feasibility study of presenting a dynamic stochastic model based on mixed integer second-order conic programming to solve optimal distribution network reconfiguration in the presence of resources and demand-side management
Nowadays, with the use of devices such as fossil distributed generation and renewable energy resources and energy storage systems that are operated at the level of distribution networks, the problem of optimal reconfiguration has faced major challenges, so any change in the power of this resources can have different results in reconfiguration. Similarly, load changes during the day can lead to ...
متن کاملTwo-stage stochastic programming model for capacitated complete star p-hub network with different fare classes of customers
In this paper, a stochastic programming approach is applied to the airline network revenue management problem. The airline network with the arc capacitated single hub location problem based on complete–star p-hub network is considered. We try to maximize the profit of the transportation company by choosing the best hub locations and network topology, applying revenue management techniques to al...
متن کاملSensitivity analysis of energy contracts management problem by stochastic programming techniques
We consider a model of medium-term commodity contracts management. Randomness takes place only in the prices on which the commodities are exchanged whilst state variable is multi-dimensional. In [9], we proposed an algorithm to deal with such problem, based on quantization of random process and a dual dynamic programming type approach. We obtained accurate estimates of the optimal value and a s...
متن کاملA Clustering Approach to Solving Large Stochastic Matching Problems
In this work we focus on efficient heuristics for solving a class of stochastic planning problems that arise in a variety of business, investment, and industrial applications. The problem is best described in terms of future buy and sell contracts. By buying less reliable, but less expensive, buy (supply) contracts, a company or a trader can cover a position of more reliable and more expensive ...
متن کاملPricing of Futures Contracts by Considering Stochastic Exponential Jump Domain of Spot Price
Derivatives are alternative financial instruments which extend traders opportunities to achieve some financial goals. They are risk management instruments that are related to a data in the future, and also they react to uncertain prices. Study on pricing futures can provide useful tools to understand the stochastic behavior of prices to manage the risk of price volatility. Thus, this study eval...
