This paper presents an open source stochastic unit commitment (UC) optimization tool, which is available on GitHub. In addition, it presents an example use case in which UC optimization is done for a waste-to-energy plant with heat storage and a battery energy storage system (BESS) in Germany, under uncertain day-ahead and balancing power (aFRR) market prices as well as heat load uncertainty. The tool consists of multiple modular extensions for the Python for Power System Analysis (PyPSA) framework, namely the implementation of market and bidding mechanisms, stochastic optimization and multistaging., Comment: Submitted to 12th IFAC Symposium on Control of Power and Energy Systems (CPES).
