Multi-Type Reserve Collaborative Optimization for Gas-Power System Constrained Unit Commitment to Enhance Operational Flexibility

Abstract

With the wide application of the gas-power system, gas-power coupling equipment such as gas turbines are gradually becoming widely used, and the problem of insufficient system reserve capacity needs to be solved. In order to improve the operational flexibility of the gas-power system, this paper combines the source side, the load side, and the energy storage side to propose a multi-type backup system, and constructs the source-load-storage multiple reserve capacity system of the gas-power system. Through the participation of gas turbine, steam turbine, interruptible load, and energy storage battery to provide reserve capacity, it can fully cope with the output fluctuation of the load side and source side and realize the coordinated operation of multiple resources to provide reserve capacity. In addition, the coordination of gas turbines and steam turbines can further improve the operation flexibility of the gas-power system. Through the example analysis, it was found that the proposed method reduced the total operating cost of the system by 10.6%.
