Title Statement A solution to the NPC Luzon grid unit commitment problem with minimum energy off-take constraint / by Lambert M. Gacuya Physical Description xiii, 143, [69] leaves : ill Summary, Etc. The complexity of modeling Minimum Energy Off-Take (MEOT) constrained Unit Commitment (UC) Problem is that it is time bound while, strictly speaking the economic dispatching problem is not. The current priority list scheduling methodology of the National Power Corporation (NPC) treats MEOT constrained units as ordinary thermal units. The unit's energy fee is added to its full load average cost in preparing the relative merit order ranking and establishes units to be committed every hour. This simplified assumption however logical, is not capable of looking ahead the planning horizon. Thus, the current practice is considered to be the best estimate but not necessarily optimal. This study attempts to establish an appropriate and realistic model of the Luzon grid with MEOT constraint and to recommend strategies that will realize potential savings or cost reduction for NPC. The MEOT constrained UC problem will be modeled mathematically and solved by treating MEOT constraint as a fuel-limited dispatch problem Local Subject Heading: Corporate National Power Corporation Subject Added Entry - Topical Term Electric power-plants -- Philippines -- Luzon -- Load   Electric power systems -- Philippines -- Luzon -- Mathematical models Collection Category FI Location UP DARCHIVES LG 995 2000 E64 G33 Room-Use Only UARD-9551T   UP DENG-II LG 995 2000 E64 G33 e2000000403 Room-Use Only E2-78T Collection Category UP Location UP DARCHIVES LG 995 2000 E64 G33 Room-Use Only UARD-9551T   UP DENG-II LG 995 2000 E64 G33 e2000000403 Room-Use Only E2-78T Textual Physical Form Designator Thesis           Physical Location University of the Philippines Diliman Main Library: University Archives LG 995 2000 E64 / G33 Diliman: College of Engineering Library II LG 995 2000 E64 / G33           Digital Copy Not Available          Add to Book Cart  |   Download MARC
