Hi Dr Zimmerman and Matpower Community, I am trying implement an OPF where the real power dispatch is pre-determined (as in the case of an energy market where the Q schedules are managed separately by the transmission operator).
Is it possible to implement it in Matpower? My idea is to add "slack" variables in the nodal energy equations Pgi - ∆Pgi + Pb1i - Pb2i - Pdi = ΣViVjYij(cos(θij + δi -δj) Pgi - fixed/predetermined real power generated at node i ∆Pgi - real power 're-scheduling' due to the reactive power dispatch Pb1i - upward balancing service at node i Pb2i - downward balancing service at node i Pb1i and Pb2 will have non-zero values when ∆Pgi is nonzero, prompting other generators to compensate the real power 're-scheduling' when needed. This is the formulation in the dissertation of Dr. El-Samahy, and I am wondering if this can be implemented in matpower. Any ideas would greatly be appreciated. Thank you very much. -- 2 Cor 12:9 Each time he said, "My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness." So now I am glad to boast about my weakness, so that the power of Christ can work through me.
