Optimization Scheduling Method for Power Systems Considering Optimal Wind Power Intervals
Abstract
:1. Introduction
- (1)
- A UC model considering the optimal wind power confidence intervals is established to balance the economic costs and risk of the dispatch plan for the power system with wind power integration.
- (2)
- The UC model is a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) problem with integral terms in its objective, and both the integrand function and integral upper/lower bound contain decision variables. The objective function is linearized and solved by discretizing the wind power probability density function and using auxiliary variables.
- (3)
- Based on the UC model, in addition to optimal wind power confidence intervals, the dynamic adjustment cost is introduced into intra-day rolling dispatch model to reduce the amount of adjustments among different rolling dispatch plans.
2. Overall Framework and Representation of Wind Power Uncertainty
2.1. Overall Framework
- (1)
- Day-ahead UC. It is a mixed integer nonlinear programming problem with the goal of minimizing the economic cost and risk cost. The UC for the next operating day is performed in current operation day, and it provides the UC plan of 24 h for the next day.
- (2)
- Intra-day rolling dispatch. Based on the latest load and wind power forecasting information, it is activated every 1 h to modify the power generation output of the next 4 h in a rolling manner. In each rolling plan, only the dispatch plan of the first hour is actually executed.
2.2. Representation of Wind Power Uncertainty

5. Conclusions
- (1)
- The simulation results show that as the wind power confidence level changes, there is a tradeoff between the economic cost and risk cost. The global optimal point which balance the economic cost and risk cost of the system can be effectively obtained by the proposed model.
- (2)
- The simulation results of intra-day rolling dispatch model shows that this model can help to reduce the regulation quantity and avoid repeated regulations, thereby reducing the overall cost within the scheduling periods.
