Özge Pınar AKKAŞ1 , Yağmur ARIKAN2 , Ertuğrul ÇAM3

The aim of unit commitment problem in power systems has been converted from cost minimization to profit maximization with the liberalization of power markets. The generation companies (GENCOs) schedule the units to maximize their profit for the forecasted prices in day ahead market (DAM). The generation scheduling of generators in deregulated environment is called as Profit Based Unit Commitment (PBUC). In this paper, an application of Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is proposed to solve PBUC problem. The method is applied to 3-units power system. The results are compared with the methods in the literature. As shown in the study, the proposed AHP method introduces its applicability and efficiency for solving the unit commitment problem in a day ahead market.
