This paper investigates the value of ensemble streamflow predictions and energy price
forecasts as aid to decision makers in scheduling the quantity and timing of reservoir …

Wind variability and hydro-wind complementarity should be both considered in the planning
of electrical power systems. In such cases, the spatio-temporal dependence between …

A novel strategy for optimal scheduling of short-term electric power generation of cascaded
hydroelectric plants based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and chance-constrained …

In this paper, parallel processing techniques are employed to improve the performance of
the stochastic dynamic programming applied to the long term operation planning of …

Environmental constraints imposed on hydropower operation are becoming increasingly
restrictive. These constraints may reduce the operational flexibility of a hydro plant and …

Hydro electricity generation is of great importance for the current and the future electricity
system since it provides electricity without emitting CO 2 and hydro reservoirs offer high …

This paper presents a new approach for the expected cost‐to‐go functions modeling used in
the stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) algorithm. The SDP technique is applied to the …

The traditional power generation mix and the geographical distribution of units have faced
structural reform with the increasing renewables. The existing scheduling schemes confront …

This paper proposes an operational policy for long-term hydropower scheduling based on
deterministic nonlinear optimization and annual inflow forecasting models using an open …

This paper compares the NEWAVE model, a stochastic dual dynamic programming based
approach used in Brazil for the long term hydropower scheduling of the interconnected …
