[en] OPTIMIZATION OF THE OPERATION UNDER UNCERTAINTY OF THERMAL PLANTS WITH FUEL CONTRACT WITH TAKE-OR-PAY CLAUSES / [pt] OTIMIZAÇÃO DA OPERAÇÃO SOB INCERTEZA DE USINAS TERMELÉTRICAS COM CONTRATOS DE COMBUSTÍVEL COM CLÁUSULAS DE TAKE-OR-PAY

RAPHAEL MARTINS CHABAR 03 February 2006 (has links)
[pt] O objetivo desta dissertação é desenvolver uma metodologia para determinar a estratégia ótima de despacho de usinas térmicas considerando as especificações do contrato de combustível e suas cláusulas de take-or-pay, as oportunidades de compra e venda de energia no mercado spot e as características da usina. Como as decisões de uma etapa têm impacto nas etapas seguintes, há um acoplamento temporal entre as decisões tomadas e o problema tem um caráter de decisão multi- estágio. Além disso, o principal guia para a tomada de decisão é o preço spot, que é desconhecido no futuro e modelado através de cenários. Desta forma, a estratégia ótima de despacho torna-se um problema de decisão sob incerteza, onde a cada etapa o objetivo é determinar a operação que maximize a rentabilidade total (ao longo de vários períodos) da central térmica. A metodologia desenvolvida se baseia em Programação Dinâmica Estocástica (PDE). Exemplos serão ilustrados com o sistema brasileiro. / [en] The objective of this work is to present a methodology to determine the optimal dispatch strategy of thermal power plants taking into account the particular specifications of fuel supply agreements, such as take-or-pay and make-up clauses. Opportunities for energy purchase and selling in the spot market as well as the plant´s technical characteristics are also considered in the optimization process. Since decisions in one stage impact the future stages, the problem is a time- coupled in a multi-stage framework. Moreover, the main driver for the decision-making is the energy spot price, which is unknown in the future and modeled through scenarios. Therefore, the optimal dispatch strategy is a decision under uncertainty problem, where at each stage the objective is to determine the optimal operation strategy that maximizes the total revenues taking into account constraints and characteristics of the fuel supply agreement. The developed methodology is based on Stochastic Dynamic Programming (SDP). Examples and case studies will be shown with the Brazilian system.
