Abstract
- With the increasing penetration rate of renewable energy sources, variability impacts, aside from uncertainty, will increase the need for operational flexibility resources in power systems. Accordingly, in this study, flexibility provision from both generation and demand sides are considered in a day-ahead scheduling problem. Fast start gas-fired units, due to their agility in starting-up and high ramping capabilities are considered as generation side flexibility providers. However, the normal operation of these units strictly depends on a secure gas supply through connected gas pipelines. Thus, gas-supply uncertainty is considered in the proposed model to mimic the impacts of deviations in gas volume through pipelines. On the other hand, demand response programs (DRPs) with their specific characteristics are among powerful demand side flexibility providers. However, unlike the existing literature that considers a supplementary role for DRPs, this study introduces the main role for DRPs as flexibility providers through comprehensive modelling of versatile DRPs. The proposed day-ahead scheduling problem is a multi-resolution robust security constrained unit commitment that the robustness comes from the decision making against sub-hourly gas-supply uncertainty and wind power variability. The applicability of the proposed model is tested on both an 8-bus and IEEE-118-bus standard test systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
