Nested-Loop Trajectory-Informed Variational Quantum Solver for Interior-Point OPF

Farshad Amani, Amin Kargarian

Optimal power flow (OPF) solved by an interior-point method (IPM) requires repeatedly solving Newton linear systems. When variational quantum linear solvers (VQLS) are used, each I…

Event-Driven Deep RL Dispatcher for Post-Storm Distribution System Restoration

Farshad Amani, Faezeh Ardali, Amin Kargarian

Natural hazards such as hurricanes and floods damage power grid equipment, forcing operators to replan restoration repeatedly as new information becomes available. This paper devel…
