Abstract
This study introduces a composite indicator based on the Benefit of the Doubt (BoD) to support System Operation Centers in adjusting real-time schedules to meet demands of Electric Power Systems (EPS). It addresses the challenge of selecting power plants for increased electricity generation in northeastern Brazil, undertaken by a company within the Brazilian electricity sector established in 1998. This entity is tasked with coordinating and overseeing the operation of generation and transmission facilities within the National Interconnected System. The evaluation focuses on the Northeast Requirement Load (NRL), with output indicators including operating time, response time, energy potential, and variable costs. Decision-makers analyze the results and concur with the prioritization of alternatives, employing the model to facilitate the selection of viable Thermoelectric Power Plants to alleviate the generation shortfall in northeast Brazil over a specified timeframe.
