This paper proposes a Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) optimization model for the scheduling problem of interconnected microgrid system. The proposed is capable efficiently minimizing microgrids' total operating costs and improving entire system's reliability, as it constrained based on enhancing reliability. Expected Energy Not Supplied (EENS) considered in order to ensure power deficie...

This paper demonstrates how a probabilistic criterion based on the full capacity outage probability distribution (e.g., LOLP) could be integrated into the unit commitment (UC) optimization using simple statistical approximation. While this provides a direct and computationally cheaper means as compared to a recently published approach to locating the globally optimal SR allocation (and associat...

This paper presents a methodology for maintenance scheduling (MS) of generators using binary particle swarm optimization (BPSO) based probabilistic approach. The objective of this paper is to reduce the loss of load probability (LOLP) for a power system. The capacity outage probability table (COPT) is the initial step in creating maintenance schedule using the probabilistic levelized risk metho...

This work presents a methodology to incorporate reliability constraints in the optimal power systems expansion planning problem. Besides Loss Of Load Probability (LOLP) and Expected Power Not Supplied (EPNS), traditionally used systems, this proposes use of risk measures VaR (Value-at-Risk) CVaR (Conditional Value-at-Risk), widely financial markets. The explicit consideration problem can be an ...
