Integer Programming Approach to the Problem of Optimal Unit Commitment with Probabilistic Reserve Determination

Abstract
A method for determining the unit commitment schedule for hydro-thermal systems using extensions and modifications of the Branch and Bound method for Inteler Programming has been developed. Significant features of the method include its computational practicability for realistic systems and proper representation of reserves associated with different risk levels. Contracts relating to power interchange have also been adequately modelled for such an approach.
