Market-clearing with stochastic security-part II: case studies

This paper analyzes the market-clearing formulation with stochastic security developed in its companion paper through two case studies solved using mixed-integer linear programming techniques. The generation and reserve schedules as well as the nodal prices of energy and security are assessed under various conditions such as a) line flow limits, b) when nonspinning reserve is excluded from the formulation, c) demand-side valuation of energy not served, d) generator ramping limits, and e) the set of pre-selected contingencies.
