Operating Dynamic Reserve Dimensioning Using Probabilistic Forecasts
Napoleon Costilla-Enriquez, Miguel Ortega-Vazquez, Aidan Tuohy +2
The rapid integration of variable energy sources (VRES) into power grids increases variability and uncertainty of the net demand, making the power system operation challenging. Ope…
Planning Low-Carbon Campus Energy Hubs
Daniel J. Olsen, Ning Zhang, Chongqing Kang +2
Multi-energy systems can provide a constant level of service to end-use energy demands, while deriving delivered energy from a variety of primary/secondary energy sources. This fue…
Optimal Carbon Taxes for Emissions Targets in the Electricity Sector
Daniel J. Olsen, Yury Dvorkin, Ricardo Fernández-Blanco +1
The most dangerous effects of anthropogenic climate change can be mitigated by using emissions taxes or other regulatory interventions to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Thi…
Tractable and Robust Modeling of Building Flexibility Using Coarse Data
Jesus E. Contreras-Ocaña, Miguel A. Ortega-Vazquez, Daniel Kirschen +1
Controllable building loads have the potential to increase the flexibility of power systems. A key step in developing effective and attainable load control policies is modeling the…
