For what concerns the bidding problem, the proposed algorithms are based on two-stage stochastic programming and are aimed at finding the optimal allocation of production between the day-ahead exchange market and the ancillary services market. For the real-time power dispatch problem, we devised a two-level hierarchical control strategy, where the upper-level computes economically optimal power set-points for the generators, and the lower level tracks them while considering constraints and dynamical models of the plant. Simulation results based on realistic data modeling the Dutch transmission network are shown to evaluate the effectiveness of the approach. date: 2013-05 publisher: IEEE pagerange: 1-8 event_title: European Energy Market (EEM), 2013 10th International Conference on the id_number: 10.1109/EEM.2013.6607416 refereed: TRUE book_title: Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on the European Energy Market (EEM13) official_url: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=6607416&isnumber=6607268 projects: This work was supported by the European project Eā€“Price: Price-based Control of Electrical Power Systems, FP7-IST contract no. 249096 citation: Puglia, Laura and Patrinos, Panagiotis and Bernardini, Daniele and Bemporad, Alberto Reliability and efficiency for market parties in power systems.
