Summary:
Alternative tight relaxations of unit commitment problems that enable large planning models to be solved with operating subproblems that capture ramp, start-up, and pmin limits and costs. We examine their performance in the context of generation and transmission expansion models, including a stochastic programming analysis of the western interconnection of North America.
