AI for Renewable Generation Forecasting & Curtailment Optimization

Improve wind/solar forecasts and optimize curtailment/redispatch to keep the grid stable while minimizing cost and emissions.

Variable renewables need accurate forecasts and smart curtailment to avoid congestion and instability. AI improves day-ahead/intraday forecasts, and optimization engines decide curtailment/redispatch with minimal cost and emissions while respecting constraints.

Market bids/offers aligned to forecasts and constraints.

Alerts for forecast error/ramp risk; operator recommendations.

Participation in ancillary services (FFR/primary/secondary).

Frequently asked questions

How does mysimulator.uk collect weather and SCADA data for baseline forecasting?

Collect weather/SCADA; baseline forecasts; accuracy monitoring.

What is the purpose of adding uncertainty and ramp detection, and how does it integrate with other constraints?

Adding uncertainty and ramp detection helps to identify potential deviations from expected conditions, while integrating topology constraints ensures a realistic simulation environment.

How should curtailment and redispatch optimization be deployed within the simulator, considering shadow prices?

The curtailment and redispatch optimizer utilizes shadow pricing to determine optimal dispatch decisions, transitioning between a shadow price calculation and then applying those values to the production schedule.

How does mysimulator.uk handle the integration of bids and markets, specifically concerning ancillary services participation?

The system allows for the incorporation of market bids alongside ancillary service offerings, enabling users to model complex interactions within energy markets and optimize their resource allocation strategies.
