A Deterministic Approach for Generation Expansion Planning Optimization

2018 IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference Europe (ISGT-Europe), 2018
The Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) problem is applied on a real energy system located in south-east of Romania, where meteorological conditions are favorable for wind farms integration. In this paper, the point of view of independent system operator that optimizes the operation of the considered system is presented.

Deterministic Approach for Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning

2018 5th International Symposium on Environment-Friendly Energies and Applications (EFEA), 2018
In this paper, the Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning (G&TEP) problem, considering two case studies, is analyzed. In the first case, the GEP and TEP problems are considered separately, while in the second GEP and TEP problems are solved together, thus G&TEP problem appears.

Generation Expansion Planning in the Age of Green Economy

IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2011
Generation expansion planning (GEP) is the problem of finding the optimal strategy to plan the construction of new generation plants while satisfying technical and economical constraints. It is a challenging problem due to its nonlinearity, large-scale, and to the discrete nature of the variables describing unit size and allocation. Originally, GEP was

Generation Expansion Planning

2016
This chapter describes the generation expansion planning (GEP) problem in a given electric energy system. Here, we take the perspective of a central planner that determines the generation expansion plan that is most beneficial for the operation of the electric energy system as a whole.

Generation Capacity Expansion Planning

2021
This chapter determines the generation capacity expansion plan that is suitable and beneficial for effective power system operation. Generation capacity expansion planning (GCEP) plays a major role in power system operations and planning. GCEP aims to achieve the most economical and reliable generation expansion planning system to serve the forecast ...

Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning

2016
The two previous chapters describe and analyze the transmission expansion planning problem (TEP, Chap. 2) and the generation expansion planning problem (GEP, Chap. 3). These two problems are critical for the optimal expansion planning of electric energy systems. However, these chapters analyze the GEP and TEP problems independently. In this chapter, we

A dynamic model for generation expansion planning

Electric Power Systems Research, 1985
Abstract Selection of optimal size and optimal timing of addition of (new) generators are the two basic problems in generation expansion planning. In this paper we have developed a simple mathematical model for generation expansion planning which consists of an economic indicator (cost functional) and a dynamic model relating future expansion with ...

A Dynamic Approach to Generation Expansion Planning

IEEE Transactions on Power Apparatus and Systems, 1973
This paper describes a new approach to optimized generation planning based on the development of large numbers of expansion patterns comprising all possible combinations of selected units. This approach yields markedly different results from the step-by-step minimum cost for each year method, and assures that the optimum pattern at least has been ...

Retirement Problems in Generation Expansion Planning

Transactions of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers. Part III: Power Apparatus and Systems, 1961
Percentage revenue requirements are shown to change little as generating plant service life estimates are varied from 35 to 65 years. However, early retirement of old plants may affect the schedule of new additions in a long-range expansion pattern. In general, lowest present worth of all future revenue requirements is obtained by keeping old plants in

Generation expansion planning in the competitive environment

2004 International Conference on Power System Technology, 2004. PowerCon 2004., 2005
This paper presents the generation expansion planning (GEP) problem in a competitive environment. In the competitive market, each power producing companies are called as generating companies (GENCOs) and they compete with each other to maximize their own profits.
