This paper presents a new comprehensive solution for maintenance scheduling of generating units in deregulated environments by applying an independent market, based on Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Monte-Carlo Simulation (MCS). In a deregulated environment each Generation Company (GENCO) desires to optimize the payoffs while independent system operator (ISO) has its reliability solicitudes. Mostly, these...
Power systems of many developing countries are facing sustained generation deficiency. India is not an exception to this. Due to generation shortage, Indian power system operates without spinning reserve as committing some of the available power generation units for spinning reserve is equivalent to loss of generation in power deficient scenario. In power system, spinning reserve is required for reliable...
Wind-diesel systems represent a proactive step towards sustainable remote communities. However, for high ratios of wind energy, the necessity of a dump load and the diesel operating constraints need to be considered. Energy storage systems offer a means of optimizing energy use and further reducing consumption of diesel fuel. This paper proposes a methodology for storage sizing based on stochastic...
Renewable energy applications are rapidly increasing in electric power generating systems. The key factors influencing their rapid growth are public support due to environmental concerns, leading to governmental policies implemented to promote renewable energy applications. Recent technological developments in wind turbines have resulted in large scale applications including supplying power to the...
