Stochastic Optimization of Economic Dispatch With Wind and Photovoltaic Energy Using the Nested Sparse Grid-Based Stochastic Collocation Method

Due to the increasing uncertainty brought about by renewable energy, conventional deterministic dispatch approaches have not been very applicative. This paper investigates a nested sparse grid-based stochastic collocation method (NS-SCM) as a possible solution for stochastic economic dispatch (SED)...
