Uma nova política operativa a usinas individualizadas para o planejamento da operação energética

摘要

This paper presents an operational policy for the mid term hydrothermal scheduling of the Brazilian Interconnected Power System (BIPS) based on the individual representation of the hydro and thermo power plants, the detailed representation of the plants' features and the indirect representation of the inflow stochasticity through a forecasting model. These characteristics differs the operational policy which is in use nowadays in BIPS, which is based on four interconnected subsystems represented by composite reservoirs. A simple case with a single hydro plant system was presented to evaluate the performance of the operational policy.
