Abstract

We present a data-driven approach that integrates machine learning prediction models with optimization under uncertainty in the presence of contextual information by utilizing residuals from the learning models. We discuss an application of this approach for making unit commitment decisions under uncertain net load conditions to improve short-term power system operations. We propose several enhancements to the basic methodology and assess their effectiveness on several case studies conducted using real-world data collected from the California and New York Independent system operators. Results show that the proposed approach can significantly improve the out-of-sample performance.
