How suboptimal is my stochastic network controller allowed to be? Completion certificates with application to power grids hosting AI data centers

Michael Chertkov

Power grids are beginning to host AI data centers whose demand can change abruptly and in a correlated way, and operators and planners must decide whether existing controllers can…

When Gigawatts of Computational Load Disappear: Cycle-Space Certificates for Grid Synchronization and Transient Stability

Michael Chertkov

Rapid growth of data centers and artificial-intelligence services is producing computational loads at scales once associated mainly with largest power plants. Recent grid events sh…

Real-Time Dynamic N-1 Screening: Identifying High-Risk Lines and Transformers After Common Faults

Ayrton Almada, Laurent Pagnier, Igal Goldshtein +3

Power system operators routinely perform N-1 contingency analysis, yet conventional tools provide limited guidance on which lines or transformers deserve heightened attention durin…

Real-Time Stochastic Assessment of Dynamic N-1 Grid Contingencies

Ayrton Almada, Laurent Pagnier, Igal Goldshtein +3

Power system operators need tools for rapid, real-time counterfactual assessments of grid security under fast-changing conditions. Traditional N-1 contingency analysis lacks dynami…

Physics-Guided Actor-Critic Reinforcement Learning for Swimming in Turbulence

Christopher Koh, Laurent Pagnier, Michael Chertkov

Turbulent diffusion causes particles placed in proximity to separate. We investigate the required swimming efforts to maintain an active particle close to its passively advected co…

Differentiable Simulator For Dynamic & Stochastic Optimal Gas & Power Flows

Criston Hyett, Laurent Pagnier, Jean Alisse +4

In many power systems, particularly those isolated from larger intercontinental grids, operational dependence on natural gas becomes pivotal, especially during fluctuations or unav…
