Research and Development of a Unified Approach to Operations Scheduling for Electric Power under Uncertainty. Technical Progress Report, June 1979-June 1980

摘要

The objective of this study was to develop a unified approach for operations schedulng in electric power systems that explicitly takes into account sources of uncertainty present at all levels in this problem. This objective requires formulating the operations scheduling problem as a single, integrated problem, and developing solution methodologies that start from this integrated formulation and progress to subproblem solution methods that are consistent with it. Progress for the first year of the project is reported. Information is included on: problem definition; time-scale decomposition; stochastic optimization of both parallel and series reservoir systems; stochastic production simulation; maintenance scheduling and nuclear refueling; and short-term resource scheduling.
