Abstract :
For the coming years an increasing share of volatile feed-in from renewable energy sources in the electrical power system is expected. This feed-in will go along with rising uncertainties which have to be balanced in the generation system using flexibilities and balancing reserves. Thus, the efficient reserve coverage by power plants becomes more import and its provision is modeled within a unit commitment simulation of the European generation system in order to investigate the future reserve coverage and to identify the potential of reserve provision by renewable energy sources.
