Abstract

Exploiting clean energy resources (CERs) is an applicable way to enhance sustainable development and have the cleaner production of electricity. On the other hand, variability and intermittency of these clean resources are the important disadvantages for determining the reliable operation of electrical grids. Thus, using the uncertainty modeling techniques seems necessary to have more practical values for the decision-making variables. The current paper demonstrates a novel architecture based on Information Gap Decision Theory (IGDT) to model the randomness of multiple Wind Farms (WFs) existing in electric power networks. Note that employing only the IGDT technique cannot consider the preferences defined by the decision-maker. In contrast, the proposed method tackles this issue by considering different values for radii of uncertainty related to the uncertain parameters. It has been proven that the presented approach is time-saving if compared with Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS) and the Epsilon-constraint-based-IGDT. Moreover, the execution time of the presented methodology does not considerably depend on the number of WFs for a power system. It means that if the number of WFs increases in a particular case study, consequently, the execution time does not noticeably rise if compared with the MCS and the Epsilon-constraint-based-IGDT. Furthermore, the equivalent Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) of the original model is employed to guarantee the optimum solution. The performances of the presented methodology have been demonstrated by utilizing IEEE 30 BUS and IEEE 62 BUS systems.
