Continuous Time Multi-stage Stochastic Reserve and Unit Commitment

Optimization and Control 2018-03-21 v1

Abstract

In this paper we introduce a continuous time multi stage stochastic optimization for scheduling generating units, their commitment, reserve capacities and their continuous time generation profiles in the day-ahead wholesale electricity market. Our formulation approximates the solution of a variational problem, in which the balance, generation capacity and ramping constraints are in continuous time. Due to the greater accuracy of our representation of ramping events this approach improves the system reliability and lowers the real-time cost.
