  • Abstract
    This work presents a methodology developed to obtain the unit commitment in hydroelectric plants. The methodology consists of three different stages, namely: definition of the system monitoring variable, unit efficiency evaluation, and unit commitment algorithm establishment. The efficiency of the proposed methodology was verified using a pilot project developed together with a hydroelectric plant having a capacity equal to 348 MW.
