Combinatorial Optimization of AC Optimal Power Flow With Discrete Demands in Radial Networks
Combinatorial Optimization of AC Optimal Power Flow With Discrete Demands in Radial Networks
The AC Optimal power flow (OPF) problem is one of the most fundamental problems in power systems engineering. For the past decades, researchers have been relying on unproven heuristics to tackle OPF. The hardness of OPF stems from two issues: (1) non-convexity and (2) combinatoric constraints (e.g., discrete power extraction …
