The nonlinear, non-convex AC Optimal Power Flow (AC-OPF) problem is fundamental for power systems operations. The intrinsic complexity of AC-OPF has fueled a growing interest in the development of optimization proxies for the problem, i.e.,…

Distribution networks will experience more installations of distributed generation (DG) that is unpredictable and stochastic in nature. Greater distributed control and intelligence will allow challenges such as voltage control to be handled…

The increasing penetration of renewable energy resources, paired with the fact that load can vary significantly, introduce a high degree of uncertainty in the behavior of modern power grids. Given that classical dispatch solutions are…

We present a systematic method for designing distributed generation and demand control schemes for secondary frequency regulation in power networks such that stability and an economically optimal power allocation can be guaranteed. A…

This paper proposes a set of closed-form conditions to ensure the strong duality of second-order cone program (SOCP) formulation for AC power flow in radial power networks. In addition, numerical evaluations on IEEE 33-bus test networks and…

Distribution system reconfiguration (DSR) means optimizing the topology of a distribution grid using switching actions. Switching actions are a degrees of freedom available to distribution system operators, e.g. to manage planned and…

Solving the Alternating Current Optimal Power Flow (AC OPF) problem to global optimality remains challenging due to its nonconvex quadratic constraints. In this paper, we present a unified framework that combines static piecewise…

Traditionally, a regional dispatch center uses the equivalent method to deal with external grids, which fails to reflect the interactions among regions. This paper proposes a distributed N-1 contingency analysis (DCA) solution, where…

Consider a distributed coding for computing problem with constant decoding locality, i.e., with a vanishing error probability, any single sample of the function can be approximately recovered by probing only constant number of compressed…

With the rising adoption of distributed energy resources (DERs), microgrid dispatch is facing new challenges: DER owners are independent stakeholders seeking to maximize their individual profits rather than being controlled centrally; and…

Reliable operation in power systems is becoming more difficult as the penetration of random renewable resources increases. In particular, operators face the risk of not scheduling enough traditional generators in the times when renewable…

Motivated by the penetration of converter-based generation into the electrical grid, we revisit the classical log-linear learning algorithm for optimal allocation {of synchronous machines and converters} for mixed power generation. The…

This paper presents a cold-start linear branch flow model named modified DistFlow. In modified DistFlow, the active and reactive power are replaced by their ratios to voltage magnitude as state variables, so that errors introduced by…

In this paper, we present a contraction-guided adaptive partitioning algorithm for improving interval-valued robust reachable set estimates in a nonlinear feedback loop with a neural network controller and disturbances. Based on an estimate…

Flexible transmission line impedances on one hand are a promising control resource for facilitating grid flexibility, but on the other hand add much complexity to the concerned optimization problems. This paper develops a convexification…

Increasing integration of distributed energy resources (DERs) within distribution feeders provides unprecedented flexibility at the distribution-transmission interconnection. To exploit this flexibility and to use the capacity potential of…

With the rapid increment of multiple users for data offloading and computation, it is challenging to guarantee the quality of service (QoS) in remote areas. To deal with the challenge, it is promising to combine aerial access networks…

With exponential growth in distributed energy resources (DERs) coupled with at-capacity distribution grid infrastructure, prosumers cannot always export all extra power to the grid without violating technical limits. Consequently, a slew of…

With the extensive integration of volatile and uncertain renewable energy, power systems face significant challenges in primary frequency regulation due to instantaneous power fluctuations. However, the maximum frequency deviation…

We study the problem of channel resolvability for fixed i.i.d. input distributions and discrete memoryless channels (DMCs), and derive the strong converse theorem for any DMCs that are not necessarily full rank. We also derive the optimal…
