Abstract

Increasing levels of renewable power generation require changes in investment models to deal with intermittent supply. We present a Markov decision problem that can be used to model thermal plant operation with intermittent demand, and show how this can be incorporated into a mixed integer programming model for optimally choosing investments. The model is extended to deal with staging investment over long planning horizons.
