Abstract :
Effective preventive maintenance scheduling
(PMS) of generating units ensures a reliable supply of
demand and economical operation of power systems.
Reserve acquisition as an imperative constraint of PMS
promotes the system reliability as well as security. Hence,
system reserve allocation may effect on economy of
power markets especially in a restructured environment.
In this paper, a new linearized formulation for cost-based
preventive maintenance scheduling associated with the
reserve procurement is developed as a mixed integer
linear programming (MILP). Here, system reserve
procurement and required energy scheduling are
performed simultaneously to examine the economic
benefit of proper reserve allocation. Several analyzes
incorporating network constraints are conducted to
investigate the impact of system reserve assessment on
maintenance scheme as well as system expenditures. The
well-known IEEE RTS is employed to demonstrate the
effectiveness of the proposed methodology while
simulation results are promising.
