X Abstract

This paper describes a method for analyzing the effect of load uncertainty on unit commitment risk, which is the probability of having insufficient committed capacity to compensate for unit failures and/or unanticipated load variation. This risk is evaluated using the usual Markov model for unit failures and a Gauss-Markov load model for load uncertainty. A rescheduling policy is essential for stochastic risk evaluation; thus one is described in this paper. The risk and the average operating reserve are evaluated using Monte Carlo simulation, and the Monte Carlo simulation is applied to the IEEE-RTS in order to demonstrate the effect of load uncertainty on the risk and on the average amount of required operating reserve. This paper is the first to combine a stochastic load model with the usual Markov unit failure model for unit commitment risk evaluation

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
