Abstract

The paper gives a complete account of the various scheduling and moderation issues faced by the system operators (SO) at the Load despatch centres (LDCs) in India while furnishing generation despatch schedules for a system of Run-of-River (ROR) type of plants arranged in tandem. It looks into the clauses in the Indian Electricity Grid Code (IEGC) pertaining to hydrogenation along with providing a detailed account of the scheduling procedure followed today and tries to deliver compact solutions by developing optimization models for the same. Cumulative as well as individual plant generation schedules for 24 hours in a day are obtained for a system of cascaded run-of-river (ROR) type hydro plants while catering to varied objective functions in the Indian electricity market.
