Stochastic reserve scheduling in smart systems incorporating energy storage systems

摘要

In this paper a two level stochastic scheme is provided in order to make a compromise between the cost of and the reliability which is provided by the procured reserve. A two stage stochastic programming is used which in the first level the energy market is cleared and in the second level the required amount of reserve is estimated. Also the effect of the energy storage devices are studied on the energy and reserve costs. The results indicate that the utilization of energy storage devices can provide the system reliability with a lower cost.
