Coordination between long-term and short-term generation scheduling with network constraints

Abstract

This paper discusses the coordination between long-term and short-term generation scheduling. The minimum energy reserve in the system is used as a performance index for short-term generation scheduling. If the short-term solution is unsatisfactory, the long-term schedule will be adjusted to satisfy the short-term scheduling requirements. The presence of network constraints impacts the scheduling solution. The proposed approach is tested on the IEEE RTS.
