This report summarizes the procedure to compare the robust UC approach with the deterministic counterpart. The procedure involves solving the robust and deterministic UC problems under various scenario configurations, and then performing system dispatch simulations under each UC solution to generate economic and operational performance measures. The report describes the parallelization process for solving UC problems as well as for running system dispatch simulations. The report also summarizes the statistical model used for generating Monte Carlo simulation samples and forming forecast ranges used in the robust UC approach. Some key findings are discussed as well. In particular, the economic and operational performance of the robust and deterministic approaches is compared under different 1) conservatism levels or the sizes of forecast range, 2) the wind penetration levels, and 3) the mixture of load and wind behaviors.
