Cascading Blackout Severity Prediction with Statistically-Augmented Graph Neural Networks

no code implementations22 Mar 2024 Joe Gorka, Tim Hsu, Wenting Li, Yury Maximov, Line Roald

Higher variability in grid conditions, resulting from growing renewable penetration and increased incidence of extreme weather events, has increased the difficulty of screening for scenarios that may lead to catastrophic cascading failures.

Security Constrained Optimal Power Shutoff

no code implementations26 Apr 2023 Noah Rhodes, Carleton Coffrin, Line Roald

To address this gap, we propose the Security-Constrained Optimal Power Shutoff (SC-OPS) problem which uses post-contingency security constraints to model the impact of unexpected line faults when planning a PSPS.

Efficient Representations of Radiality Constraints in Optimization of Islanding and De-Energization in Distribution Grids

1 code implementation21 Apr 2022 Joe Gorka, Line Roald

Optimization of power distribution system topology is complicated by the requirement that the system be operated in a radial configuration.

Co-optimization of power line shutoff and restoration under high wildfire ignition risk

no code implementations5 Apr 2022 Noah Rhodes, Line Roald

Specifically, our model co-optimizes the power shutoff (considering both wildfire risk reduction and power outages) as well as the post-event restoration efforts given constraints related to inspection and energization of lines, and is implemented as a rolling horizon optimization problem that is resolved whenever new forecasts of load and wildfire risk become available.

Recursive Restoration Refinement: A Fast Heuristic for Near-Optimal Restoration Prioritization in Power Systems

no code implementations5 Apr 2022 Noah Rhodes, Carleton Coffrin, Line Roald

The prioritization of restoration actions after large power system outages plays a key role in how quickly power can be restored.

The Role of Distributed Energy Resources in Distribution System Restoration

no code implementations12 Dec 2021 Noah Rhodes, Line Roald

With increasing levels of distributed energy resources (DERs) connected to the grid, it is important to understand the role that DERs can play in post-disaster restoration.

A Guide to Reducing Carbon Emissions through Data Center Geographical Load Shifting

no code implementations19 May 2021 Julia Lindberg, Yasmine Abdennadher, Jiaqi Chen, Bernard C. Lesieutre, Line Roald

This paper focuses on how data centers can use their geographic load flexibility to reduce carbon emissions through clever interactions with electricity markets.

Stochastic Hybrid Approximation for Uncertainty Management in Gas-Electric Systems

no code implementations23 Mar 2021 Conor O' Malley, Gabriela Hug, Line Roald

We demonstrate that coordinated uncertainty management that accounts for the gas system can significantly reduce both electric and gas system load shed in stressed conditions.

Low Frequency AC Transmission Upgrades with Optimal Frequency Selection

1 code implementation11 Mar 2021 David Sehloff, Line Roald

In this paper, we investigate the use of LFAC as a transmission upgrade and propose models and analysis methods to determine the optimal choice of frequency.

PowerModelsRestoration.jl: An Open-Source Framework for Exploring Power Network Restoration Algorithms

1 code implementation27 Apr 2020 Noah Rhodes, David Fobes, Carleton Coffrin, Line Roald

With the escalating frequency of extreme grid disturbances, such as natural disasters, comes an increasing need for efficient recovery plans.

Balancing Wildfire Risk and Power Outages through Optimized Power Shut-Offs

1 code implementation15 Apr 2020 Noah Rhodes, Lewis Ntaimo, Line Roald

Electric grid faults can be the source of catas-trophic wildfires, particularly in regions with high winds andlow humidity.

A Modified Benders Decomposition for Chance-Constrained Unit Commitment with N-1 Security and Wind Uncertainty

1 code implementation15 Mar 2017 Kaarthik Sundar, Harsha Nagarajan, Line Roald, Sidhant Misra, Russell Bent, Daniel Bienstock

As renewable wind energy penetration rates continue to increase, one of the major challenges facing grid operators is the question of how to control transmission grids in a reliable and a cost-efficient manner.
