Chance-constrained optimal schedule of battery energy storage considering the uncertainties of renewable generation by Zhi Li, Dawei Xie, Haifeng Ye, Yujun Li, Jinzhong Li, Yichi Chen, Yue Yang

“…Since renewable energy generation has strong uncertainties and pure conventional unit dispatch schemes are limited by the unit-operating capacities, such scheduling is inapplicable for power systems with high proportions of renewable energy sources (RESs). We propose an optimal scheduling model for battery energy storage systems (BESSs) by considering the uncertainties of RESs. …”
