Operations research in optimal power flow: A guide to recent and emerging methodologies and applications
J. Kyle Skolfield, Adolfo R. Escobedo
Abstract
The fields of power system engineering and operations research are growing rapidly and becoming increasingly entwined. This survey aims to strengthen the connections between the two communities by introducing specific power systems problems and the theoretical operations research approaches implemented to address them in recent years. It discusses a number of optimal power flow applications including expansion planning, regular operation, markets, network resiliency, and unit commitment.
