This paper presents a novel mixed-integer secondorder cone programming model for the robust multi-stage substation expansion planning problem considering stochastic demand. The stochastic nature of the demands is considered ...

Electric energy transmission is essential for the operation of competitive energy markets. Transmission expansion planning has been defined as a complex combinatorial optimization problem. This work puts forward a description ...

Electrical distribution systems (EDSs) should be prepared to cope with demand growth in order to provide a quality service. The future increase in electric vehicles (EVs) represents a challenge for the planning of the EDS ...

Maintenance in transmission networks is an economical way to reduce upgrading network costs without decreasing its reliability. Hence, new studies regarding transmission expansion planning (TEP) must take into account the ...

In this paper, we propose a three-stage robust generation and transmission expansion planning model considering generation profiles of renewable energy sources (RES) affected by different long-term climate states. Essentially, ...
