Abstract

This paper introduces a mathematical model for having the optimum operation of electrical power system with different values of reliability levels. The start-up costs of the units, minimum-up times and minimum-down times of the units are of the factors considered Based on the reserve requirements and reliability analysis, a suggested method is presented for economical reliability computation of electrical power systems.
