Abstract :
This paper addresses the economic and emission operation of fossil-fired thermal units. Electric energy markets and environmental restrictions are raison dpsilatre for companies with fossil-fired units to improve decisions, allowing for a better negotiation of their electric energy products. A rationale insight in order to design an information management system over the range of the admissible electric power domain for the units committed is presented, allowing enhancement of management decisions on the operation, regarding the strategic environmental and the economic assessment in an electricity market.
