This research presents a comprehensive mathematical model aimed at improving the management efficiency of hydropower plant (HPP) participation in the electricity market of Ukraine. The model focuses on the optimal daily allocation of available hydro resources, integrating the nonlinear nature of technological electricity consumption specific to HPP operations. A profit function is formulated to represent revenue from electricity sales across different market segments, with a particular emphasis on the "day-ahead" market. The model also incorporates both linear and nonlinear functions of the costs associated with purchasing electricity needed to meet the internal operational requirements of HPP generators under various load conditions. The objective function is designed to maximize profit by balancing electricity sales with the associated costs of technological energy use, accounting for variations in generation modes. In addition, the model includes a detailed system of operational constraints tied to the hydro resource management within the "Reservoir – HPP" hydraulic engineering node, ensuring the feasibility and sustainability of energy dispatch solutions. Test calculations have been carried out using real and simulated input data to evaluate the model's practical applicability. The results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in optimizing HPP operation within the current regulatory and market environment of Ukraine. The model offers valuable insights for enhancing both economic returns and operational reliability of HPPs, contributing to more efficient integration of renewable hydro resources in the national electricity market

Niniejsze badania przedstawiają kompleksowy model matematyczny mający na celu poprawę efektywności zarządzania udziałem elektrowni wodnych (HPP) w rynku energii elektrycznej Ukrainy. Model koncentruje się na optymalnej dziennej alokacji dostępnych zasobów hydroenergetycznych, uwzględniając nieliniowy charakter technologicznego zużycia energii elektrycznej, charakterystycznego dla działalności elektrowni wodnych. Sformułowano funkcję zysku, która reprezentuje przychody ze sprzedaży energii elektrycznej w różnych segmentach rynku, ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem rynku „dnia następnego”. Model uwzględnia również zarówno liniowe, jak i nieliniowe funkcje kosztów związanych z zakupem energii elektrycznej niezbędnej do zaspokojenia wewnętrznych potrzeb eksploatacyjnych generatorów elektrowni wodnych w różnych warunkach obciążenia. Funkcja celu ma na celu maksymalizację zysku poprzez zbilansowanie sprzedaży energii elektrycznej z powiązanymi kosztami technologicznego zużycia energii, uwzględniając zmiany w trybach wytwarzania. Ponadto model zawiera szczegółowy system ograniczeń operacyjnych związanych z zarządzaniem zasobami hydroenergetycznymi w węźle hydrotechnicznym „Zbiornik – HPP”, zapewniając wykonalność i zrównoważony charakter rozwiązań w zakresie dystrybucji energii. Obliczenia testowe przeprowadzono z wykorzystaniem rzeczywistych i symulowanych danych wejściowych w celu oceny praktycznej przydatności modelu. Wyniki dowodzą skuteczności proponowanego podejścia w optymalizacji eksploatacji elektrowni wodnych w obecnym otoczeniu regulacyjnym i rynkowym Ukrainy. Model oferuje cenne informacje na temat zwiększenia zarówno korzyści ekonomicznych, jak i niezawodności operacyjnej elektrowni wodnych, przyczyniając się do efektywniejszej integracji odnawialnych źródeł energii wodnej na krajowym rynku energii elektrycznej.
