  • Abstract
    This paper presents a Lagrangian relaxation based technique for solving the power system thermal unit commitment problem. The specific technique described in this paper focuses on finding a feasible commitment, then attempting to improve on the optimality of the solution. A new method for processing ramp rate constraints is also introduced. The algorithm has been implemented on a large scale power system
