TLDR
The details of the network modeling and problem formulations used by MATPOWER, including its extensible OPF architecture, are presented, which are used internally to implement several extensions to the standard OPF problem, including piece-wise linear cost functions, dispatchable loads, generator capability curves, and branch angle difference limits.Abstract:
MATPOWER is an open-source Matlab-based power system simulation package that provides a high-level set of power flow, optimal power flow (OPF), and other tools targeted toward researchers, educators, and students. The OPF architecture is designed to be extensible, making it easy to add user-defined variables, costs, and constraints to the standard OPF problem. This paper presents the details of the network modeling and problem formulations used by MATPOWER, including its extensible OPF architecture. This structure is used internally to implement several extensions to the standard OPF problem, including piece-wise linear cost functions, dispatchable loads, generator capability curves, and branch angle difference limits. Simulation results are presented for a number of test cases comparing the performance of several available OPF solvers and demonstrating MATPOWER's ability to solve large-scale AC and DC OPF problems.read more

Tight-and-cheap conic relaxation for the AC optimal power flow problem
TL;DR: In this paper, a conic relaxation obtained by combining semidefinite optimization with the reformulation-linearization technique, commonly known as RLT, was proposed, which is stronger than the second-order cone relaxation and nearly as tight as the standard semideinite relaxation.

Toward topologically based upper bounds on the number of power flow solutions
TL;DR: This paper empirically explores the relationship between the network topology, as characterized by the maximal cliques, and the number of power flow solutions, using a numerical polynomial homotopy continuation approach that is guaranteed to find all complex solutions to the power flow equations.

Enforcing Policy Feasibility Constraints through Differentiable Projection for Energy Optimization
TL;DR: In this paper, a differentiable projection layer is incorporated within a neural network-based policy to enforce that all learned actions are feasible, and the policy is updated end-to-end by propagating gradients through this differentiable projections, making the policy cognizant of operational constraints.

Information gap decision theory for voltage stability constrained OPF considering the uncertainty of multiple wind farms
TL;DR: The main feature of the proposed VSC-OPF model is to handle the uncertainty of multiple wind farms in a way that for a given worsening of total cost, maximum tolerable uncertainty of wind power generation is achieved for all WFs.
