Reconfiguring the link between buses is a crucial task to enhance the distribution system performance. Reconfiguration is a complex combinatorial process due to numerous feasible solutions. Therefore, to consistently find ...

This study presents a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model to solve the simultaneous transmission network expansion planning (TNEP) and reactive power planning (RPP) problem. The proposed model considers reactive ...

State estimators based on load flows and applied in electrical power systems (EPS) are a basic and crucial function in energy management systems (EMS), since they must guarantee the quality of their results for decision-making. ...

This work presents a simplified mathematical model for solving the reactive optimal power flow problem with continuous and discrete control variables. The distributed slack bus modeling was used in the tested electrical ...

Until recently, transmission network constraints have been incorporated into the unit commitment (UC) problem (security-constrained UC [SCUC]) using the classical direct current (DC)-based equation. This paper proposes a ...

An integrated generation, transmission, and energy storage planning model accounting for short-term constraints and long-term uncertainty is proposed. The model allows to accurately quantify the value of flexibility options ...

The Electric Bus Rostering and Charging Scheduling (EBRCS) problem consists in assigning a fleet of electric buses to vehicle blocks (i.e. predefined sequences of trips) and scheduling their overnight charging operations ...

The paper proposes a framework for the analysis and representation of external systems for online optimisation studies. The basis for this framework is the equivalent OPF (EOPF), an optimisation model obtained by partitioning ...
