A reliability-constrained planning model for antarctic electricity
Firstly, the reliability-oriented planning model applicable to the Antarctic integrated energy system is constructed. In particular, the improved Gaussian mixture model is
A reliability-constrained planning model for antarctic electricity
Firstly, the reliability-oriented planning model applicable to the Antarctic integrated energy system is constructed. In particular, the improved Gaussian mixture model is introduced to accurately describe the probabilistic characteristics of renewable energy in Antarctica considering its unique geographical location and operating environment.
