Large Scale Probabilistic Simulation of Renewables Production
We develop a probabilistic framework for joint simulation of short-term electricity generation from renewable assets. In this paper we describe a method for producing hourly day-ahead scenarios of generated power at grid-scale across hundreds of assets. These scenarios are conditional on specified forecasts and yield a full uncertainty quantification both at the marginal asset-level and across asset collections. Our simulation pipeline first applies asset calibration to normalize hourly, daily and seasonal generation profiles, and to Gaussianize the forecast--actuals distribution. We then develop a novel clustering approach to stably estimate the covariance matrix across assets; clustering is done hierarchically to achieve scalability. An extended case study using an ERCOT-like system with nearly 500 solar and wind farms is used for illustration.

Microgrid management with weather-based forecasting of energy generation, consumption and prices
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change proposes different mitigation strategies to achieve the net emissions reductions that would be required to follow a pathway that limits global warming to 1.5{\deg}C with no o…
Decision Makingenergy managementManagementExtreme prices in electricity balancing markets from an approach of statistical physics
An increase in energy production from renewable energy sources is viewed as a crucial achievement in most industrialized countries. The higher variability of power production via renewables leads to a rise in ancillary…
Are EU Climate and Energy Package 20-20-20 targets achievable and compatible? Evidence from the impact of renewables on electricity prices
This paper studies the realizability and compatibility of the three CEP2020 targets, focusing on electricity prices. We study the impact of renewables and other fundamental determinants on wholesale and household retail …
Transition pathways to electrified chemical production within sector-coupled national energy systems
The chemical industry's transition to net-zero greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is particularly challenging due to the carbon inherently contained in chemical products, eventually released to the environment. Fossil feedst…
