A Spinning Reserve Allocation Method for Power Generation Dispatch Accommodating Large-Scale Wind Power Integration

Spinning reserve allocation is a critical problem for active power dispatch with large-scale wind power penetration. A risk-based reserve allocation method that accounts multiple control sub-area coordination is given in this paper. And a multi-objective optimization model is constructed to schedule the spinning generation reserve for online active power dispatch. A fuzzy optimization method is used to transform the multi-objective optimization problem into a single-objective optimization one. The relationship between loss of load expectation and spinning reserve is also derived. And a particle swarm optimization (PSO) method is employed to provide a numerical solution to the problem. Numerical tests on IEEE RTS system are also given to validate the proposed method.
