Real-time economic dispatch and reserve allocation using merit order loading and linear programming rules
- Auburn Univ., AL (USA)
This paper presents a real-time economic dispatch algorithm suitable for on-line generation control and for study programs. The method is based on the rules of linear programming and the classical method of merit order loading. The basis for the algorithm is shown as a natural progression of classical optimization algorithms. Comparison with linear programming is included to exhibit the flexibility of the algorithm. The inclusion of a constraint for a unit or for a system wide margin (e.g. spinning reserve) is shown. The procedure is fast, in part, since the Simplex Tableau is not explicitly stored. The method is shown in pseudo-code. This method is very suitable for real-time economic dispatch on any Energy Management System.
