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.

California Test System (CATS): A Geographically Accurate Test System based on the California Grid

1 code implementation9 Oct 2022 Sofia Taylor, Aditya Rangarajan, Noah Rhodes, Jonathan Snodgrass, Bernie Lesieutre, Line A. Roald

This paper presents the California Test System (CATS), a synthetic transmission grid in California that can be used by the public for power systems policy research without revealing any critical energy information.

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.

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.
