Baseline-improved Economic Model Predictive Control for Optimal Microgrid Dispatch

Avik Ghosh, Adil Khurram, Cristian Cortes-Aguirre +2

Economic Model Predictive Control (EMPC) optimizes economic performance over a prediction horizon rather than stabilizing to a reference, making it attractive for microgrid (MG) di…

Optimal SVI-Weighted PSPS Decisions with Decision-Dependent Outage Uncertainty

Ryan Greenough, Kohei Murakami, Jan Kleissl +1

Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) are a pre-emptive strategy to mitigate the wildfires caused by power system malfunction. System operators implement PSPS to balance wildfire mit…

Economic MPC with an Online Reference Trajectory for Battery Scheduling Considering Demand Charge Management

Cristian Cortes-Aguirre, Yi-An Chen, Avik Ghosh +2

Monthly demand charges form a significant portion of the electric bill for microgrids with variable renewable energy generation. A battery energy storage system (BESS) is commonly…

Wildfire Risk Metric Impact on Public Safety Power Shut-off Cost Savings

Ryan Greenough, Kohei Murakami, Jan Kleissl +1

Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSPS) are a proactive strategy to mitigate wildfire risks by preemptively de-energizing power lines and redispatching generation. However, wildfire ri…

Adaptive Relaxation based Non-Conservative Chance Constrained Stochastic MPC

Avik Ghosh, Cristian Cortes-Aguirre, Yi-An Chen +2

Chance constrained stochastic model predictive controllers (CC-SMPC) trade off full constraint satisfaction for economical plant performance under uncertainty. Previous CC-SMPC wor…

Wildfire Resilient Unit Commitment under Uncertain Demand

Ryan Greenough, Kohei Murakami, Michael Davidson +2

Public safety power shutoffs (PSPS) are a common pre-emptive measure to reduce wildfire risk due to power system equipment failure. System operators use PSPS to de-energize electri…

Optimal Frequency Regulation using Packetized Energy Management

Sarnaduti Brahma, Adil Khurram, Hamid Ossareh +1

Packetized energy management (PEM) is a demand dispatch scheme that can be used to provide ancillary services such as frequency regulation. In PEM, distributed energy resources (DE…

Real-time Grid and DER Co-simulation Platform for Validating Large-scale DER Control Schemes

Adil Khurram, Mahraz Amini, Luis A. Duffaut Espinosa +2

Distributed energy resources (DERs) such as responsive loads and energy storage systems are valuable resources available to grid operators for balancing supply-demand mismatches vi…

A Methodology for Quantifying Flexibility in a fleet of Diverse DERs

Adil Khurram, Luis A. Duffaut Espinosa, Mads Almassalkhi

This paper addresses the question: how many distributed energy resources (DERs) are needed to provide MW of flexibility over a number of hours? For this purpose, a metric bas…

A Model-Predictive Control Method for Coordinating Virtual Power Plants and Packetized Resources, with Hardware-in-the-Loop Validation

Mahraz Amini, Adil Khurram, Andrew Klem +2

In this paper, we employ a bi-level control system to react to disturbances and balance power mismatch by coordinating distributed energy resources (DERs) under packetized energy m…
