Abstract

The power sector bears significant responsibility for achieving carbon neutrality. Low-carbon, high-flexibility generation technologies are pivotal in the generation mix of the foreseeable future. In this paper, a mixed-integer operation model of combined-cycle gas-turbine generators is developed, featuring a new mode-based modeling of post-combustion carbon capture plants. The model is applied to a day-ahead adaptive robust unit commitment problem considering wind power uncertainties. Numerical results from a case study on a modified 39-bus benchmark system demonstrate the correctness and practicality of the model. Compared to the linear model widely adopted in the literature, the proposed mode-based model achieves a 4.91% wider operating range in the net electric power output. Besides, the initial solvent ratio as a non-negligible parameter for the short-term operation of carbon capture plants, whose optimal setting leads to a wider operating range in the net electric power output of up to 21.96%.
