Pumped Storage Hydropower Plants (PSHPs) are one of the most extended energy storage systems at worldwide level , with an installed power capacity of 153 GW . The goal of this type of storage system is basically increasing the amount of energy in the form of water reserve .
Since the pumped storage hydropower system comprises two different pipes (one for pumping water flow and the other one for water discharged flow), the scheduling model considers the possibility of simultaneously using both pumps and turbines.
The pumped storage technology has an installed capacity close to half of the nuclear power capacity (975 MW and 1755 MW, respectively). The pumped storage system of Argentine Republic is composed by two PSHPs: Los Reyunos that has two reversible turbines with 225 MW of installed capacity and Rio Grande with four turbines and 750 MW of capacity.
Thanks to the clutch, each unit can operate simultaneously in pumping and generating mode; the pumps operating at a fixed consumption power level. In this way, the power plant can be “seen” by the grid as a controllable load, with a power regulation range equal to that of the turbines in operation.
Introduction Among the available technologies to store energy at a large-scale level, pumped hydroelectric energy storage (PHES) is the most widely adopted one.
In the MILP formulation, each operation mode of the pumped-storage units (generating, idle and pumping) is modeled as a pseudo-unit, as referred to by the authors. Transition costs among different operation modes as well as minimum on/off times for each mode are considered in the paper.
