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 …

Abstract The Unit Commitment problem in energy management aims at finding the optimal
production schedule of a set of generation units, while meeting various system-wide …

The fast growth of technologies most of which depend on natural sources of energy has
resulted in a huge consumption of fossil fuels. In this regard, many solutions have been …

This paper proposes a novel data-driven adaptive robust optimization (ARO) framework for
the unit commitment (UC) problem integrating wind power into smart grids. By leveraging a …

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 …

Long-distance power support through High-voltage Direct Current (HVDC) has provided
feasible solutions for power dispatch and control problems in multi-area power systems …
