  3. Abstract:
  4. Electricity generation in vicinity of the load centers seems rather imperative since the costs associated with the reinforcement of new transmission lines are hugely intolerable or maybe this process cannot be practically applicable. There are many means of power generation in addition to the conventional ones among them are solar cells, wind turbines, and thermal units. In this paper, these sources of power generation are involved to manage a power system of an island region. As a consequence, the possibility of exploiting the constructive effects of such green energy resources would be approved. In respect with a reliable system adequacy management, short-term load forecasting (STLF) is employed to estimate the hourly load of the next day. This paper well investigates the effects of STLF together with the environmental variables' models on the optimal power generation plan. The proposed method is applied to a real test system in Kish which is located in Persian Gulf. The results well demonstrate the efficacy and applicability of the proposed methodology
