- Stochastic coordination of joint wind and photovoltaic systems with energy storage in day-ahead marketPublication . Gomes, Isaias L. R.; Pousinho, H. M. I.; Melicio, Rui; Mendes, VictorThis paper presents an optimal bid submission in a day-ahead electricity market for the problem of joint operation of wind with photovoltaic power systems having an energy storage device. Uncertainty not only due to the electricity market price, but also due to wind and photovoltaic powers is one of the main characteristics of this submission. The problem is formulated as a two-stage stochastic programming problem. The optimal bids and the energy flow in the batteries are the first-stage variables and the energy deviation is the second stage variable of the problem. Energy storage is a way to harness renewable energy conversion, allowing the store and discharge of energy at conveniently market prices. A case study with data from the Iberian day-ahead electricity market is presented and a comparison between joint and disjoint operations is discussed.
- Dust effect impact on PV in an aggregation with wind and thermal powersPublication . Gomes, Isaías; Melicio, Rui; Mendes, VictorThis paper is about the dust effect impact on photovoltaic systems on the profit of an electricity market agent acting as an aggregator of photovoltaic power, wind power, thermal power, and an energy storage system. Energy storage ensures arbitrage and smoothing of the variability of photovoltaic power and wind power. The market agent intends to derive bids for submission in a day-ahead market, having consideration of the dust effect impact on the photovoltaic power. A formulation is proposed for a support decision system by a profit-based unit commitment problem solved by a stochastic programming approach, considering the operating characteristics of the virtual power plant. The photovoltaic power, wind power, and market price uncertainties are input data derived from scenarios of historical data. Case studies addressed show the advantages of the stochastic programming approach and insights concerned with the integration of uncertainties within the modeling for the schedule of the energy storage system and the dust effect impact on profit.
- Aggregation platform for Wind-PV-Thermal technology in electricity marketPublication . Gomes, Isaías; Laia, R.; Pousinho, H. M. I.; Melicio, Rui; Mendes, VictorThis paper addresses a stochastic Wind-PV- Thermal commitment to improve the bidding process of an aggregator in an electricity day-ahead market. The data for the wind and solar powers and for the market prices are given by a set of scenarios. Thermal units modeling includes start-up costs, variables costs and bounds due to constraints of technical operation, such as: ramp up/down limits and minimum up/down time limits. The modeling is carried out in order to develop a management aggregation procedure based in a stochastic programming approach formulated as a mixed integer linear mathematical programming problem. A case study is addressed with market price from the Iberian Peninsula and comparison between disaggregated and aggregated bids is discussed to address the main conclusions.
