Coupled operation of a wind farm and pumped storage facility: techno-economic modelling and stochastic optimization.

This thesis applies a stochastic programming approach to the techno-economic analysis of a wind farm coupled with a pumped storage facility. The production of an optimal day-ahead generating schedule is considered. Wind forecasts contain an element of random error, and several methods of addressin...
