13 Generic model formulation Model formulation max p,x,v,s f (p) (1) f is the objective function representing benefit, such as income minus cost, and p is a vector of generation and load variables. (1) is subject to the following constraints, where (2) are the water balance equations with hydraulic network topology and deterministic inflow series: g w (v, x, s) = 0 (2) v is a vector of reservoir volumes, x is the release and s is spill in all periods in all reservoirs. The vector of Lagrange multipliers, Λ w, with (2) are water values at each instant in each reservoir or (3), Λ w = [ λ w1, λ w2, ]T (3) Egill Benedikt Hreinsson University of Iceland Expansion () and Operation Strategies in a Renewable andmay Hydro-Based 30, 2012 Island 13 Power / 22 S

14 Generic model formulation Load, network and market constraints Equation (4) are the load, network and market constraints: (See (8) below) g L (p) = 0 (4) Similarly, the vector of Lagrange multipliers, Λ L, associated with (4) are the shadow power prices at each instant at each node, or (5), Λ L = [ λ L1, λ L2, ]T (5) Egill Benedikt Hreinsson University of Iceland Expansion () and Operation Strategies in a Renewable andmay Hydro-Based 30, 2012 Island 14 Power / 22 S

15 Generic model formulation Technical generation constraints The technical generation constraints are in (6), representing, for instance, the nonlinearities and head dependence in hydro stations: g t (p, x, v) = 0 (6) Finally upper and lower bounds on all the variables are defined by (7): p min p p max v min v v max x min x x max s 0 (7) Egill Benedikt Hreinsson University of Iceland Expansion () and Operation Strategies in a Renewable andmay Hydro-Based 30, 2012 Island 15 Power / 22 S

16 Generic model formulation Subvector for generation/power flow This above definition can be represented by sub-vectors: p = p g p s p m (8) For all periods: p g is vector of generated power in hydro and thermal, (Wind is assumed a deterministic input) p s is a vector of the power flow in the electrical network, for instance using a DC/linear load flow representation (No voltage or phase angle). p m, is a vector of sold energy for instance on the spot market.

20 Modeling requirements and time frame STM time scale representation STM interaction and representation 1 C1 - Continuous Load duration curve (LDC) by sorting 8760 hours/year into an LDC, as 1 year s distribution of load. Chronology is thereby removed, and is therefore not well suited to hydro systems with time interdependence. 2 L1 - Stepwise Long Term Load. Derive 12, 26 or 52 load values for a time step in LTM of a week, up to a month. 3 LC2 An LDC added in the week to account for variations within the week. 4 LS1. A complete chronology maintained in all periods of both the LTM (weeks) and STM (hours). 5 LSC. Here we assume the merging of LC2 and LS1: (a) flat load, (b) LDC with wind deducted and (c) total chronology Egill Benedikt Hreinsson University of Iceland Expansion () and Operation Strategies in a Renewable andmay Hydro-Based 30, 2012 Island 20 Power / 22 S

21 Conclusions Conclusions and Discussion Wind resources and spot markets seem likely to pose new interesting challenges to traditional hydro based system modeling and operations. LTM time scales have been used with good results for a hydro system without the wind resource. With the integration of wind and spot markets STM seems an important addition to interact with the new resources/markets and the LTM. The many possible ways of decomposing the time scale and interacting with data between the LTM and STM will affect the accuracy and computational efficiency and should be evaluated carefully with other modeling aspects and methodology. To address transmission constraints and losses in waterways, an STM seems an important aspect of the LTM modeling framework.
