Description
Summary:Power generation using Hybrid Power Plants (HPP), consisting of thermal, renewable and energy storage units are become popular nowadays due to the dwindling supply of fossil fuels as well as concerns about global warming. Moreover, the rapid advancements in Renewable Energy (RE) and Energy Storage (ES) technologies suggest that the future power system scheduling strategies would be incomplete if RE and ES units are not modelled. Unit Commitment Problem (UCP) for HPP in the presence of solar power and energy storage facility is formulated in this paper. The proposed UCP is analyzed using MATLAB employing dynamic programming method. The results show that the approach is timely, useful and can help in the future power plant scheduling strategies.
