Optimizing strategies for short-term hydropower scheduling using a blackbox optimization framework
This paper presents a study on the best possible use of optimization models for the short-term hydropower scheduling problem. Different deterministic and sto...
BibTeX reference
For planning the operation of power transmission systems, which transport the energy produced by generation plants to customers centers, it is essential to e...
BibTeX reference
This paper studies the properties of a stochastic optimization model for the short-term hydropower generation problem with uncertain inflows. The uncertaint...
BibTeX reference
Every component of an electric power system is susceptible to failure. The power transmission system connects generating units to local distribution systems,...
BibTeX referencePleiad: An open-source modeling package for exploring residential flexibility in the smart grid
Demand response (DR) has been increasingly growing in significance among the solutions to tackle climate change, along with the development of intermittent r...

A new business opportunity is emerging with the combination of three key market trends: (1) Increased penetration of residential solar PV; (2) Rapid reductio...
BibTeX referenceOn the impact of the power production function approximation on hydropower maintenance scheduling
Maintenance planning for hydropower plants is a crucial problem. In this paper, we evaluate the impact of the Hydropower Production Function (HPF) formulatio...
BibTeX reference
The accessibility and reducing cost of distributed renewable energy sources are stimulating the emergence of small-scale residential prosumers who can produc...

This work considers the graph partitioning problem known as maximum k-cut. It focuses on investigating features of a branch-and-bound method to efficiently...
BibTeX reference
The energy landscape is marked by a rapid emergence of electricity prosumers at all levels of the grid. While energy policy seems to be more adaptive to the ...

This paper presents a linear mixed-integer formulation to solve the short-term unit commitment problem. It determines the pair of maximum efficiency points o...
BibTeX reference
We consider the use of demand response to address phase unbalance in a distribution grid. At present this problem is addressed by modifying the topology of t...
BibTeX reference
Intermittent renewable energy, such as solar and wind, brings uncertainty into the grid. To increase their contribution into the energy mix, load management ...
BibTeX referenceTulip: An open-source interior-point linear optimization solver with abstract linear algebra
This paper introduces the algorithmic design and implementation of Tulip, an open-source interior-point solver for linear optimization. It implements the ho...
BibTeX reference
Computational speed and global optimality are a key need for pratical algorithms of the OPF problem. Recently, we proposed a tight-and-cheap conic relaxation...
BibTeX reference
In demand-response programs, aggregators balance the needs of generation companies and end-users. This work proposes a two-phase framework that shaves the ag...
