Robust Optimization for Electricity Generation

We consider a robust optimization problem in an electric power system under uncertain demand and availability of renewable energy resources. Solving the deterministic alternating current (AC) optimal power flow (ACOPF) problem has been considered challenging since the 1960s due to its nonconvexity. Linear approximation of the AC power flow system sees pervasive use, but does not guarantee a physically feasible system configuration. In recent...
