Constrained bundle methods with inexact minimization applied to the energy regulation provision problem

Colin Neil Jones, Tomasz Tadeusz Gorecki

We consider a class of large scale robust optimization problems. While the robust optimization literature often relies on structural assumptions to reformulate the problem in a tractable form using duality, this method is not always applicable and can resu ...

Handling Large Power Steps In Real-time Microgrid Control Via Explicit Power Set-points

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Mario Paolone, Lorenzo Enrique Reyes Chamorro, Andrey Bernstein, Roman Rudnik

We consider a microgrid with real-time control using explicit power-setpoints. Sudden power-steps, such as load disconnections or load in-rushes, directly affect the decisions of the microgrid controller that aims at avoiding voltage or line-ampacity viola ...
