Abstract

This report describes the optimization of large scale MIP models to plan economically the operation of energy systems. A number of measures were implemented to accelerate the optimization procedures included in the program package "Energy Management System". This program package is designed to economically plan the operation of any single and combined energy system (electric power system; district heating and its combinations) a week or a day in advance. Between 1 and 2 % savings in operation costs (fuel and start up costs of thermal units and costs for contracted energy) can be expected based on the experience up to now.

The user oriented program package runs under control of VM/CMS and is menue driven as far as both the input of system and operation data and the color graphic output of optimization results (power and cost schedules, water economics) via terminals (displays, printers) are concerned.
