Optimal scheduling of battery storage systems and thermal power plants for supply–demand balance

This paper focuses on the day-ahead scheduling problem of generating power for thermal power plants and charging/discharging battery energy storage systems based on interval predictions of photovoltaic power. Our previous approach to this problem used the Jacobian of a solution with respect to the variation in demand. However, this study was limited in the sense that the output capacity constraints of thermal power plants were not taken into...
