Bulk indices for transmission grids flexibility assessment in electricity market: A real application
A review on the flexibility concept for an application to power systems is reported. Flexibility is used as metric for bulk system operational planning in market context. Bulk System Flexibility Indices (BuSFI) are defined. A calculation tool is realized. A real application of the dedicated tool shows useful results. The Italian TSO is testing BuSFI for assessment on the National Transmission System.
