Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming a promising source of grid ancillary services due to the temporal and spatial charging flexibility, quick response storage capability. Such advantages increasing with government policy promotion technology improvement. However, exploration EV flexibility requires coordination both transmission system operators (TSOs) distribution (DSOs), ensure safe reliable operation power network. In this paper, we propose coordinated evaluation method that determines...
This paper presents a market-based resource adequacy assessment framework to analyze the system generation portfolio that results in competitive market environment. In particular, we apply modeling investigate impact of high penetration levels variable renewable energy resources and different designs on achieving adequacy. The model captures strategic capacity investment retirement decision-making profit-maximizing companies. contrast many previous studies, this considers markets for...
Revenue estimation for integrated renewable energy and storage systems is important to support plant owners or operators' decisions in battery sizing selection that leads maximized financial performances. A common approach optimizing revenues of a hybrid hydro system using mixed-integer linear programming (MILP). Although MILP models can provide accurate production cost estimations, they are typically very computationally expensive. To fast yet first-step information hydropower operators who...
Forward markets are gaining increasing interest in the transition towards low-carbon electricity markets. This paper examines role of forward with zero-carbon energy resources, such as solar and wind energy, hydropower, storage, by studying strategic behaviors suppliers both spot We formulate a two-stage game-theoretic model analyze Nash equilibrium systems. prove that, market comprising resources without inter-temporal constraints (such only wind), presence can lower price provided that...
This paper presents a probabilistic reliability assessment model to address several challenges presented by modern power systems with increasing shares of variable renewable energy and storage. The includes two-stage structure simulate steady-state post-contingency conditions that allows for more realistic system reliability. Computational efficiency is enhanced through filtering Monte Carlo samples parallel computing. We first analyze how outage sample size affects outcomes across different...
The means for transporting more power through an existing transmission corridor have been given considerable attention in recent studies. Reconductoring a path with conductor that has higher thermal capacity, such as high temperature low sag (HTLS) conductor, is one possible option minimal structural modification and out-of-service time. Parallel line additions or HTLS parallel are other options can increase transfer capabilities reduce operating costs. Thermal constraint relaxation another...
The battery life and cost of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs) are two key factors that impede the introduction PHEVs in current market. For a given drive pattern, cycle has an inverse relationship with utilization, gasoline savings (petroleum displacement) direct correlation utilization. This paper attempts to determine trade-off between fuel by varying utilization for fixed distance pattern. By vehicle energy management, different scenarios created. Battery hardware-in-the-loop (a...
As power systems integrate increasing quantities of wind, solar and energy storage resources, it is important to revisit system capacity expansion modeling methods assumptions that have been utilized in thermal-dominated systems. We conduct a series case study analyses using simplified representation the Electric Reliability Council Texas (ERCOT) demonstrate how least-cost outcomes are impacted by changes model resolution across two temporal dimensions: 1) number considered representative...
Utilizing energy storage solutions to reduce the need for traditional transmission investments has been recognized by system planners and supported federal policies in recent years. This work demonstrates detailed reliability assessment quantitative comparison of benefits investments. First, a mixed-integer linear programming expansion planning model considering candidate lines technologies is solved find least-cost investment decisions. Next, operations under resulting configuration are...
The distribution system operation and planning are facing a great challenge from the increasing penetration of electric vehicles, especially in case large amount aggregated simultaneously charging load at public stations.
