Decision Support System for Peak Load Dispatching

According to the decision demands from peak load dispatching (PLD) in power system, we develop a decision support system (DSS) for PLD by means of computer technology. In the DSS, we design a platform of data warehouse after data pre-processing, and propose an integration support technique by applying pattern recognition, robust regression and optimal load dispatch approach on the platform. We develop a software system for the DSS to implement the entire peak load dispatch process, and achieve the above all functions automatically. The extracted useful information from large amounts of data may provide the accurate forecasting peak loads and the effective decision-making information of the peak period for the dispatchers and managers of power system. The validity of the designed system for PLD is shown by the simulation results to an actual power system in China.
