Clustering methods to find representative days for modelling the Portuguese electricity system

Abstract

Power system modelling affects decisions on over $450 billion worth of assets world-wide each year. While complex and computationally demanding models, when properly simplified a balance between accuracy and simulation time can be achieved. Solutions and results for this thoroughly studied problem tend to be rather case-specific, and the Portuguese system presents challenges that make existing approaches insufficient. To better understand this system and how its peculiarities can be used to reduce its modelling complexity, a model of the Portuguese electricity system using PLEXOS software was developed and used to test the impact of different clustering techniques on the model’s output results. We show that including natural hydro inflow in the clustering to find representative days for a system where hydro generation plays such a large role can improve model output accuracy. This is typically ignored in the literature. Additionally, we demonstrate that using data disregarding daylight saving time changes can have an impact on results. Finally, we indicate that intraday downsampling might have limited effect on modelling accuracy, and open the way for future work on weighting clustering input dimensions differently to improve accuracy of representative days.

Q1: How many ep esen a i e days a e needed o e ec i ely model a yea o he Po uguese
powe sys em?
The numbe o ep esen a i e days needed o accu a ely model a powe sys em di ec ly a ec s how

Q2: Is he clus e ing accu acy a ec ed by using inpu da a ha igno e dayligh sa ing ime

This ques ion in pa icula was no ound in any o he li e a u e e iewed. Time se ies da a in UTC
(Coo dina ed Uni e sal Time) igno es dayligh sa ing ime changes and is commonly used o ime
se ies da ase s since i a oids ha ing an hou wi h missing da a and ano he wi h wo eco ds each

meaning ha he in luences on elec ici y demand p o iles om people’s quo idian ac i i ies end o

and 10 a.m. UTC he o he hal . Howe e , as his does no impac he p o iles o IRES, he e ec s o
ime seasonali y on he clus e ing migh change when including IRES se ies.
Q3: Does he unusual p e alence o hyd o gene a ion capaci y o he Po uguese sys em mean
ha hyd o gene a ion da a can imp o e he clus e ing accu acy?
E en hough i is becoming inc easingly ecu en o include wind and sola da a in he clus e ing o

Because, con a ily o mos sys ems s udied in he li e a u e e iewed, o e a hi d o he ins alled

Q4: Should all inpu da a dimensions be gi en he same weigh when clus e ing?
In sec ion 2 we ha e desc ibed a ious app oaches o clus e ing ep esen a i e days o powe sys em

could maximise ep esen a i eness o unimpo an se ies. Howe e , inco po a ing a ce ain dimension
in o he clus e ing does no need o be a ze o-sum game. We de eloped a new app oach and s udied
how weigh ing di e en ly he a ious dimensions in he clus e ing a ec s he model’s accu acy. Fo
example, we a e in oducing hyd o na u al in low. Would his be gi en he same weigh as wha we

we unde s and how he ola ili y, co ela ion wi h demand, and capaci y o ha ype o gene a ion

Q5: Do in aday agg ega ions (downsampling) ha e a signi ican impac on he model’s
accu acy when combined wi h o he echniques?
The numbe o ep esen a i e days can only be educed up o a ce ain poin be o e accu acy s a s
d opping d as ically. Howe e , a model’s complexi y can also be educed wi h in aday agg ega ions,
such as downsampling. P enninge (2017) showed ha downsampling can wo sen esul s when

Fu he mo e, we in end o combine downsampling wi h he p e iously desc ibed weigh ing echnique.
In o de o answe hese ques ions we s a ed by collec ing, analysing, and p ep ocessing he da a. We

Also bea ing in mind ha one o he goals was o clus e wi h mul iple combina ions o he six inpu

As i was shown in sec ion 2, he mos common p ocedu e in simila s udies is o ei he only use

Using he h ee hyd o na u al in low da a se s as sepa a e dimensions could mean o e ly ocusing on

As he numbe o ep esen a i e days can only be educed o a ce ain amoun while main aining

7. LIMITATIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FUTURE WORKS
This s udy expanded he li e a u e by in es iga ing me hods o c ea e ep esen a i e days o he
Po uguese elec ici y sys em, combining di e en compa ison me ics wi h mul iple clus e ing, ime

assump ions and o e come challenges ha may ha e implica ions in he esul s. In addi ion, hese
indings sugges u he a eas o explo a ion.
Hyd o gene a ion is impo an o some coun ies like Po ugal, howe e he a ailable hyd o da a was
limi ed because ENTSO-E’s TP only publishes weekly hyd o s o age da a, needed o calcula e na u al

and hyd o ese oi da ase wi h less g anula i y (weekly) han he es o he da ase (hou ly) migh
ha e educed he ele ance o he conclusions aken when compa ing clus e ing wi h all 6 dimensions.
We hus een o ce he need o mo e comple e, cen alised, ha monised, and well-documen ed powe
sys em modelling da a sou ces as p esen ed by Wiese e al. (2018). As p osume s, V2G, and g een
ene gy demand become e e mo e equen , he impo ance o including hem in powe sys em
models also inc eases. Howe e , his will only be possible wi h he publica ion o eliable, consis en ,
and well-documen ed da a on hese dimensions.
The h ee model accu acy measu es used (NRMSD o hou ly p ice du a ion cu e, yea ly gene a ion
pe uni ype, and yea ly o al cos s) ended o be a he co ela ed be ween each o he , indica ing

F om his expe ience we conclude ha mo e di e si ied compa ison me ics could be es ed o a mo e
insigh ul compa ison, e en ually using me ics ha ake in o accoun high and low peak e en s.
Ex eme e en s (a bo h ends o he spec um) a e he mos di icul o model and can ha e g ea
impac s on build decisions. Fo example, long pe iods o d ough can mean ha mo e dispa chable
powe plan s migh need o be buil in o de o coun e balance IRES’s ola ili y, as dispa chable hyd o
would no ha e enough s o ed ene gy o peak sha ing.
Some o he a o emen ioned esul s’ ola ili y could ha e been in oduced by using k-medoids, so o
u u e wo ks we sugges compa ing esul s wi h di e en clus e ing me hods, namely by choosing a
medoid only a e all k-means i e a ions ha e an, as pe o med by Pineda & Mo ales (2018). DTW
could also be implemen ed wi h he men ioned clus e ing echniques. Howe e , he da ase s would

Di e en ly weigh ing clus e ing inpu dimensions was shown o be able o imp o e modelling esul s.
Howe e , we we e no able o s udy how case-speci ic hese indings a e, and wha a e he
