  • Patent number: 6021402
    Abstract: A computer implemented risk-management system schedules the generating units of an electric utility while taking into consideration power trading with other utilities and the stochastic load on the utility system. The system provides the user with a tool that generates multiple load forecasts and allows the user to vary the fuel price between the different scenarios and the different periods of the planning horizon. The tool allows the user to model accurately the uncertain trading transactions and the changing fuel prices to meet the electric demand of customers at a minimal cost while making the maximum profit possible from power trading. The tool also allows the user to apply any set of linear constraints to fuels.
