摘要
The reservoir optimal operation depends on not only specific characteristics of reservoirs and hydropower stations but also stochastic inflows. The key issue of actual hydropower operation is to make an approximate optimal decision triggered by limited inflow forecasts. To implement actual optimal operation of hydropower system with limited inflows forecast, this paper makes use of Support Vector Regression (SVR) to derive optimal operating rules. To improve the performance of SVR, parameters in SVR model are calibrated with grid search and cross validation techniques. The trained SVR model describes the complex nonlinear relationships between reservoir operation decisions and factors by considering both generalization and regression performance, which overcomes local optimization and over fitting deficits. Hybrid programming platform is further developed to implement system simulation. This SVR model along with simulation platform is applied to the largest hydropower base in China -Jinsha system. Three scenarios are developed for comparison: deterministic optimal operation, SVR based simulation with calibrated parameters, SVR based simulation with default parameters. Comprehensive evaluation indicates that, operating rules derived from SVR presents a reliable performance in system power generation and output processes with respect to ideal deterministic results, especially when the parameters are calibrated. Hybrid programming technique provides a feasible and compatible platform for future research.
