Abstract

This paper presents a new solution for

maintenance scheduling of Distributed Generation (DG) in

deregulated power markets by applying an independent market

for DG maintenance scheduling based on game theory.

Maintenance scheduling is one of the important issues in

restructured power electricity markets, because each

distribution generation company desires to maximize its own

payoffs and independent system operator (ISO) has its own

reliability concerns that mostly, these two points of view are

against with each other. The paper presents a dynamic

Distribution Resources Maintenance Market (DRMM) based on

dynamic game theory for resolving maintenance scheduling

problem of distributed generation resources in deregulated

environment. In this market, distribution generation companies

are set their strategies to participate in DRMM by considering

load, primary resources and seasonal forced outage rate

uncertainties and behaviour of other DG companies that

participate in market. On the other hand, ISO manages the

maintenance market based on reliability and offering incentives

/penalties for DG companies. This paper studied the ISO acts by

using Monte-Carlo simulation for reliability indices assessment

relying on load and resources uncertainties and interactions

between DG companies. Numerical results are determined by

using an applicable case study for testing accuracy and

applicability of the new proposed solution.
