Abstract here
Contents
Introduction
Intermittent renewable sources such as wind and solar are highly competitive with fossil fueled generations in South Australia. Currently, Renewable Energy makes up about over 50% of total generations in SA. However, this introduces many issues on balancing sources within the grid due to meet power demand. These balancing sources can be in the form of responsive gas turbines, demand respond and grid storage which consists of hydro pump storage and battery storage. It is important that as the intermittent renewable sources increasing, balanced sources are allocated in a coordinated and economically efficient way.

Objectives
To investigate the techniques for optimizing the allocation of balancing sources within a grid so as to minimize the need for network augmentation, minimize the amount of storage and reserve generation and minimize prioritize the use of demand respond.
