Abstract: A method for generating power in a network including a non-intermittent source and an intermittent source, including predicting a demand by a load and an uncertainty; distributing a power to be generated between the sources, the distributing being suitable for minimizing a fuel consumption required for the generation by the non-intermittent source and the intermittent source; and dimensioning a reserve of power, the dimensioning being suitable for compensating for the consumption uncertainty.

Abstract: A method for optimizing the consumption, by loads, of an electrical power produced by at least one renewable source and at least one non-intermittent source connected to an electricity production and distribution network, the method including a step of determining a time profile of a renewable power produced by the at least one renewable source; a step of determining, among loads connected to the network, constraints on the use of said loads; a step of determining a plan of operation of said loads for maximizing the consumption of the renewable power produced by the at least one renewable source, while respecting said constraints on use, this determination including an evaluation of the consumption of the renewable power under the effect of a time-shift in starting said loads.
