PowerModelsADA: A Framework for Solving Optimal Power Flow using Distributed Algorithms

Abstract

This paper presents PowerModelsADA, an open-source framework for solving Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problems using Alternating Distributed Algorithms (ADA). PowerModelsADA provides a framework to test, verify, and benchmark both existing and new ADAs. This paper demonstrates use cases for PowerModelsADA and validates its implementation with multiple OPF formulations.
