Economic Value of Intermittent Power Generation

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
A significant part of the renewable energy differs from conventional generating technologies such that they produce electricity intermittently. If traditional levelized cost approach is used it gives inappropriate and misleading results. We utilize a long-run oriented Real-Time Price based model to analyze the economic value of intermittent electricity

Distributed dynamic economic dispatch of power generators with storage

2015 54th IEEE Conference on Decision and Control (CDC), 2015
This paper considers the dynamic economic dispatch problem for a group of generators with storage that communicate over a weight-balanced strongly connected digraph. The objective of the generators is to collectively meet a certain load profile, specified over a finite time horizon, while minimizing the aggregate cost. At each time slot, each generator

Economics of on-site power generation by fuel cells

Energy Conversion, 1968
Abstract Recent advances in fuel cell technology have led us to study characteristics of fuel cell processes, especially efficiency and minimum cost, and to interpret these characteristics in terms of possible competition between fuel cells and “conventionally” generated power. The study limited to processes utilizing fuel cells with solid-oxide and

An economic competitiveness analysis of power generation plants

2018 5th International Conference on Industrial Engineering and Applications (ICIEA), 2018
Due to the fast growth of renewable energy resources, the analysis and comparison of costs associated with different forms of electricity generating sources are crucial for decision policy makers and investors. To this end, the Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE) is a widely tool employed to assess the economic viability of a power plant, however the ...

Economic Scheduling of Generators in an Interconnected power system

2020 6th International Conference on Advanced Computing and Communication Systems (ICACCS), 2020
In a typical power generating system cost optimization performs crucial act to deliver power to the consumers at lowest possible price. This cost optimization is achieved by proper scheduling of all available generators based on their fuel costs. This means that the real & reactive power flows of all units, allowed changing within their acceptable ...

Economic control for generation in thermal power systems

Energy Conversion and Management, 1999
This work is based on two proposed procedures for scheduling of generating units to obtain optimum economic dispatch with consideration of control over the generating units. Two mathematical models were built, taking the transmission losses into account.
