Abstract
A system for determining power flows in a power plant comprising an energy storage system (ESS) and a power generation system includes at least one memory storing a power plant model of the power plant and at least one processor. The power plant model includes an ESS model including a battery model, a power generation system model, a power price schedule for first and second loads configured to receive power from the power plant, and system relationships between the models. The at least one processor is configured to receive a power demand schedule representing expected power demands from the first load and the second load and determine, based on the power demand schedule, the power price schedule, and the system relationships, a power flow rate forecast for at least one point in the power plant.
