Dear all, I am currently trying to model generator contingencies in MOST. However, my problem is, that there is no variation of generator dispatch over all the modelled states. The generators with a contingency assigned have therefore zero dispatch in the base and contingency state. Consequently I get no differences between the base case and the states in which contingencies do occur. Moreover I have applied the same set up to model transmission line contingencies. This setup doesn’t cause any problems and I am getting different power flows in the base state and the states with contingencies.
In my setup, I have assigned a big amount of positive/negative reserve quantities with zero reserve costs to the generators with modelled contingencies. I have already tried to define contingencies for all kind of generators (different maximum capacity, different marginal costs). The system I am simulating consists of 940 buses, 4500 generators and 1350 transmission lines. Did someone have the same problem? What could be the reason that I don’t get any differences in generator dispatch among the modelled states? Thank you very much for any kind of inputs and advices Maurus Rusch
