Krste Misirkov 2, Skopje, Macedonia Abstract. The paper presents the model for power plants operation in a complex power system. According the mathematical model, the software tool can be applied for different analyses and needs of the operators of power plants or power system operators. The optimization model takes into account the minimum operating costs of thermal power units in complex power system for all period (one year). The optimization procedure is made according the power balancing between energy demand and supply for each time interval ( hour) respecting the operating and technical conditions of the units. The application of the model in this paper is for projected power system of Macedonia for the period after 22. The input parameters of the thermal units and hydro power plants are from Macedonian power system, with operation of a proposed nuclear power unit in a power system. The energy demand is according projected needs with hourly loads in a year (8). The results will be presented for selected weeks in winter and summer period of the year for hourly operation of the power plants in the power system. Keywords: power system, reservoir, reversible, hydro power plant Introduction The paper presents the model for planning the operation role of the reversible hydro power plant in a complex power system consists of thermal and hydro power plants. The application test example for the Macedonian ower System is a future projection when the hydro power complex of the Crna River will be finished. power plants Cebren and Galiste are the most significant investments in the Macedonian Energy System planned for the next decade. These two hydro power plants together with the existing H Tikves which is downstream of the new ones are enclosing the hydro power complex of Crna River. This paper gives the analysis for the role of the H Cebren and H Galiste, together with all other power plants in the ower System of Macedonia. Taking into accounts the technical parameters, the following three scenarios (cases) will be taken into consideration: H Cebren and H Galiste as the ordinary hydro power plants which operate only in turbinegeneration regime. H Cebren as a reversible hydro power plant which can operate in two regimes: pump-motor regime and turbine-generation regime, and H Galiste as ordinary hydro power plant. Both H Cebren and H Galiste as the reversible hydro power plants, which operate in two regimes: pump-motor regime and turbinegeneration regime. The analyses are done with the software tool for planning of the complex power system consists of thermal and hydro power capacities. The software tool gives few other results and values as the output of case processing, as the following ones: natural input, reservoir level, pumped water from down to upper reservoir, turbine discharge, power balance and energy balance for each time interval. 2 Model for Operation Role of Reversible H The model for operation planning of the reversible H is the upgraded of the existing model [,2] which is analytical approach of the objective function. The objective function is the total production costs for electricity generated from thermal power units. Also the model includes the constrains and conditions for water balances of the Hs, covering the electricity demand, taking into accounts for the technical parameters of the hydro and thermal units. The time period, for example one year, can be divided in intervals with a hour duration (8), or intervals with 24 hours duration (35), intervals with week duration (52), or others. The modelling of the reversible H can be done in two approaches:. Fixing the pumping water for the reversible H for each time interval. 2. Fixing the electrical energy needed for pumping regime for the whole period. The first approach with fixing the pumping water follows the power for pumping of the fixed amount of water which is the additional load of the interval 3 82 Bulgarian Nuclear Society

With fixing the total electrical energy for the whole period needed for pumping, follows the electrical power for pumping in each interval and then follows the water power for pumping: fixed electrical energy W total = pump m T t= m pump (t) t (t) Q pump (t) pumping water. The total electricity amount for pumping W total can be the import contract or other previous contract for T unit. The m pump (t) in each interval is getting in the optimization procedure for the whole power plants. The relation between power for pumping and water discharge for pumping is given by pump m (t) = 9.8Qpump m (t)(h gross + H losses ). η pump η motor The generating regime for the reversible H is the same as the others H. Also, it is very important to determine the time intervals for pumping and time intervals for generation. Following the optimization procedure for the whole power system of thermal and hydro power units; the solution is approach in the iteration procedure. m Table.

In order to have better economical income from the operating regime, it is very important the water managing between the upper and lower reservoir for the time period. This paper presents the hydro-nuclear operation of Cebren and Galiste with N. Reversible H is the appropriate solution for the complex power system. The advantage of this complex system is the additional peak energy with reversible H Cebren and Galiste (high tariff of selling), where the base loads capacity of N can be use for pumping regime (low tariff of buying). This managing can have financial benefit of the hydro nuclear complex H Cebren and H Galiste are one of the biggest investments in energy sector in Macedonia for the next years. Therefore, it is very important to analyze the role of the whole hydro power complex of Crna River in the Macedonian ower System. Besides the energy benefit, the additional point can be the financial benefit with the economical and reasonable price for electricity in pumping operating regime comparing with the same one in generating regime in peak loads.
