This paper presents the application of mixed-integer programming (MIP) approach for solving the hydrothermal self scheduling (HTSS) problem of generating units. In the deregulated environment, the generation companies schedule their generators to maximize their profit while satisfying loads is not an obligation. The HTSS is a high dimensional mixed-integer optimization problem. Therefore, in the large-scale power systems, solving the HTSS is very difficult. In this paper, MIP formulation is adopted for precise modeling of dynamic ramp rate limits, prohibited operating zones, operating services, valve loading effects, variable fuel cost, non-linear start-up cost functions of thermal units, fuel and emission limits of thermal units, multi head power-discharge characteristics of hydro plants and spillage of reservoir. The modified IEEE 118-bus system is used to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method.
