stELMOD is a stochastic optimization model to analyze the impact of uncertain renewable generation on the dayahead and intraday electricity markets as well as network congestion management. The consecutive clearing of the electricity markets is incorporated by a rolling planning procedure resembling the market process of most European markets.
Based on GAMS. Using MS Excel for data processing.
