A computer system provides real-time control of power dispatch for a power system. The power system includes power generators, renewable power generators, load, and storage devices interconnected by a power grid. The computer system obtains input data, and solves an online multi-period power dispatch problem formulated from the input data and incorporates AC power flow in the power grid. The computer system generates control signals according to a solution of the online multi-period power dispatch problem, and sends the control signals to controllers of the power generators and the storage devices. In every time period during operation of the power system, the computer system updates the solution, generates updated control signals according to the updated solution, and sends the updated control signals to the controllers to continuously operate the power system with minimized operational cost while fully utilizing renewable power output.
