An Introduction To OPTIMAL SCHEDULING STRATEGY FOR ENERGY CONSUMPTION MINIMIZATION OF HYDRO-THERMAL POWER PLANT

Table of Contents Introduction Alternative vs. Renewable Energy Hydropower History The Hydrological Cycle

Introduction Energy: the ability to do work Human civilization has harnessed and utilized energy at an exponential rate Combustion (Chemical Energy) Electricity Wind (Mechanical Energy) Digestion (Chemical Energy) An Introduction To

Optimal scheduling strategy � It is an important study task how to minimize the sum of water consumption volume of the hydroelectric plant. � Water is one of renewable energy. � Coal is non-renewable energy � water must be placed on more prior consideration for electric energy production than coal.

Alternative vs. Renewable Changes with society Alternative Energy generated from alternatives to the primary energy source (currently fossil fuels) No implication of pollution! Renewable Energy Static definition Energy that can replaced rapidly by natural processes An Introduction To

The Hydrological Cycle Solar Heat Gravity Kinetic Where’s the energy you ask? An Introduction To

Hydropower History Hydropower was one of the first “modern” renewables utilized by humanity, when water wheels were discovered (~4, 000 B. C. ) For almost 6, 000 years engineers have innovated and adapted the water wheel to better suit their needs, or increase efficiency. All these wheels shared the same basic principle: They transferred: to Mechanical energy in order to perform work An Introduction To

Hydroelectric is born Magnet Copper Disc Rotation It was in 1831, when Michael Faraday discovered the homopolar generator, now commonly known as dynamos. Binding Screws Electricity (to capture current) An Introduction To

Hydroelectricity in Growth IN 1936 1907 1940 Hydroelectricity This figure grew to 40% accounted for 15% The Hoover Dam was completed, as thein the of all electricity largest Unitedhydroelectric States plant in it’s time (It is currently the 35 th largest hydroelectric plant, over 70 years later!) An Introduction To

Environmental Shortcomings Hydroelectric power may not burn fuel or emit C 02, but it does affect the environment An Introduction To

Conclusion Hydroelectric power was one of the first renewable sources of energy, and therefore the most developed currently. Overtime other renewable sources of energy will develop and become competitive, offering a wider variety of affordable renewable energy. An Introduction To
