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

A Laplacian-Based Approach for Finding Near Globally Optimal Solutions to OPF Problems
TL;DR: An alternative approach that algorithmically determines a penalization appropriate for many OPF problems is presented that constrains the generation cost to be close to the lower bound from the SDP relaxation and yields feasible points to the OPF problem that are guaranteed to have objective values near the global optimum due to the constraint on generation cost.

Distributionally Robust Chance-Constrained Optimal Power Flow Assuming Unimodal Distributions With Misspecified Modes
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider ambiguity sets that additionally incorporate unimodality information and derive a separation-based algorithm to solve the problem and evaluate the performance of the proposed approach on a modified IEEE-30 bus network with wind uncertainty and compare it with other distributionally robust approaches.
