Optimizing the schedule of thermal generators is probably the most important task when the
operation of power systems is managed. This issue is known as the unit commitment …

With the fast-growing demand in the electricity market of the last decades, attention has
been focused on alternative and flexible sources of energy such as hydro valleys. Managing …

Security-constrained unit commitment (SCUC) is a fundamental problem in power systems
and electricity markets. In practical settings, SCUC is repeatedly solved via mixed-integer …

We provide a comprehensive overview of mixed-integer programming formulations for the
unit commitment (UC) problem. UC formulations have been an especially active area of …

Security-constrained unit commitment (SCUC) problem is one of the necessary tools for
system operators to make operational planning and real-time operation. The internalization …

Demand response (DR) is expected to play a major role in integrating large shares of
variable renewable energy (VRE) sources in power systems. For example, DR can increase …

Flexibility requirements are becoming more relevant in power system planning due to the
integration of variable Renewable Energy Sources (vRES). In order to consider these …

Power generation planning and price setting in hydrothermal systems is a complex task,
usually performed by a chain of optimization models, ranging from long to short-term time …

This paper provides the convex hull description for the basic operation of slow-and quick-
start units in power-based unit commitment (UC) problems. The basic operating constraints …

In this paper, we introduce a compromise programming (CP) framework for solving a multi-
objective two-stage stochastic unit commitment problem characterized by high penetration of …
