Abstract :
This paper proposes a dynamic model for evaluation of a pumped storage project (PSP). The optimal expansion policy is determined by considering different alternatives (types of units: rodbar PSP (RPSP), steam turbine, 2 types of gas turbine and a combined cycle). Based on this model dynamic assessment of different alternatives (over a 20 years period and with a target loss of load probability (LOLP)) provides economic justification for RPSP
