Abstract

In this work, we aim to minimize the cost of generation in a power system while meeting demand in nearto real time. The proposed architecture is composed of two sub-problems: continuous-time economic dispatch (CTED) and optimal automatic generation control (OAGC). In its original form, the CTED problem incorporates generator aggregate-frequency dynamics, and it is infinite-dimensional. However, we present a computationally tractable function space-based solution method for the proposed problem. We also develop an optimization-based control algorithm for implementing OAGC. Theoretical considerations for decoupling the two problems are explored. We validate the economic efficiency and frequency performance of the proposed method through simulations of a representative power network.
