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

Effect of electric vehicle parking lots' charging demand as dispatchable loads on power systems loss
M. Hadi Amini,Kianoosh G. Boroojeni,Cheng Jian Wang,Arash Nejadpak,S. Sitharama Iyengar,Orkun Karabasoglu +5 more
TL;DR: This paper considers parking lots as demand aggregators to find the total charging demand at each hours based on single EV's electricity consumption, and investigates the effect of parking lots characteristics on the network's hourly loss and daily energy loss.

On the Role of Communications Plane in Distributed Optimization of Power Systems
TL;DR: The simulation results show that the existing communications plane in power systems might not be able to support widely used distributed optimization techniques (such as ADMM and OCD), which is a major finding, and the connectivity requirements of distributed optimization necessitate a mesh network architecture with additional communications links among substations.

A Knowledge-Based Framework for Power Flow and Optimal Power Flow Analyses
TL;DR: A knowledge-based paradigm for PF and OPF analyses is used to extract complex features, hidden relationships, and useful hypotheses potentially describing regularities in the problem solutions from operation data-sets to reduce the complexity of power flow and optimal power flow problems.
