Abstract :
A new probabilistic optimal power flow method is developed to manage electricity market price risk. The proposed method is an adaptive importance sampling method which based on the principle of importance sampling and reinforcement learning. The estimation result of conventional Monte Carlo simulation is taken as benchmark. Case study is conducted on IEEE 39-Bus system to compare the proposed method with point estimate method, which shows the feasibility and efficiency of the method.
