A Computational Efficient Pumped Storage Hydro Optimization in the Look-ahead Unit Commitment and Real-time Market Dispatch Under Uncertainty (2304.03821v1)

Published 7 Apr 2023 in eess.SY and cs.SY

Abstract: Pumped storage hydro units (PSHU) are great sources of flexibility in power systems. This is especially valuable in modern systems with increasing shares of intermittent renewable resources. However, the flexibility from PSHUs, particularly in the real-time market, has not been thoroughly studied. The storage optimization in a real-time market hasn't been well addressed. To enhance the use of PSH resources and leverage their flexibility, it is important to incorporate the uncertainties, properly address the risks and avoid increasing too much computational burdens in the real-time market operation. To provide a practical solution to the daily operation of a PSHU in a single day look-ahead commitment (LAC) and real-time market, this paper proposes two pumped storage hydro (PSH) models that only use probabilistic price forecast to incorporate uncertainties and manage risks in the LAC and real-time market operation. The price forecast scenarios are formulated only on PSHUs that minimizes the computational challenges to the Security Constrained Unit Commitment (SCUC) problem. Numerical studies in Mid-continent Independent System Operator (MISO) demonstrate that the proposed models improves market efficiency. Compared to traditional stochastic and robust unit commitment, the proposed methods only moderately increase the solving time from current practice of deterministic LAC. Probabilistic forecast for Real Time Locational Marginal Price (RT-LMP) on PSH locations is created and embedded into the proposed stochastic optimization model, an statistical robust approach is used to generate scenarios for reflecting the temporal inter-dependence of the LMP forecast uncertainties.
