Abstract
This study investigates the application of a robust method to solve the problem of security constrained unit commitment (SCUC) with flexible resources for managing the uncertainty of significant wind power generation (WPG) to sustain the load-generation balance. The flexible resources include up/down ramping capability of thermal units, hourly demand response, energy storage system and transmission switching action through an integrated scheme. The application of mixed-integer linear programming to deal with the SCUC problem with flexibility resources has been discussed in this study using information-gap decision theory (IGDT) to realise a robust strategy for power system decision maker. Besides, this study proposes an effective solution strategy based on Benders' decomposition to solve the proposed problem. Numerical simulation results on the modified six-bus system and IEEE 118-bus system clearly demonstrate the benefits of applying flexibility resources for managing the WPG uncertainty and validate the applicability of the proposed IGDT-based SCUC model.
