Abstract
This paper presents an effective and practical method based on the Lagrangian relaxation method for solving hydro-thermal unit commitment problem in which operational constraints involve spinning reserve requirements for thermal units and prohibition of simultaneous unit start-up/shut-down at the same plant. This method is processed in each iteration step of LRM that enables a direct solution. To improve convergence, this method applies an augmented Lagrangian relaxation method. Its effectiveness demonstrated for a real power system.
