Analysis of dispatch methods in Northwest Area

The northwest area is full of renewable energy in China, and the development of renewable energy is rapid which brings great influence on the operation of power system. With the large-scale of renewable energy, it is difficult for energy consumption in the northwest provinces, and there still exists energy curtailment in all provinces. Renewable energy consumption in the northwest area is limited by insufficient demand, potential of sending out electricity, and peaking capacity. As the basis of system operation, the research of scheduling methods provides basic data and reference for all aspects of system operation scheduling. In order to further promote the consumption of renewable energy, we study the impact of different scheduling methods on the ability of renewable energy consumption. Combining with the actual data, we analyze and evaluate the scheduling methods, comparing the characteristics of each scheduling method, and studying its impact on renewable energy consumption. Combined with relevant calculations and analysis, the optimization suggestions for exploiting the potential of renewable energy and improving consumption space are provided.
