Impact of operational scheduling of pumped storage power plant considering excess energy and reduction of fuel cost on power
In recent years, a substantial amount of photovoltaic (PV) generations have been installed in power systems. However, the power output from the PV is random and intermittent in nature. As a result, the PV generation poses many challenges to system operation. PV generates electricity only in the daytime regardless of power demand. When the daytime
