Reinforcement Learning for Public Safety Power Shutoffs Under Decision-Dependent Uncertainty and Nonlinear Wildfire Ignition Models
Prasanna Raut, Chaoyue Zhao, Alexandre Moreira
Power grid infrastructure is an increasingly significant source of wildfire ignitions and poses severe risks to communities in fire-prone regions. Public Safety Power Shutoffs (PSP…
A Markov Decision Process Framework for Enhancing Power System Resilience during Wildfires under Decision-Dependent Uncertainty
Xinyi Zhao, Prasanna Raut, Chaoyue Zhao +1
Wildfires pose an increasing threat to the safety and reliability of power systems, particularly in distribution networks located in fire-prone regions. To mitigate ignition risk f…
From Net Load Modifiers to Firm Capacity: The Role of Distributed Energy Resources in Resource Adequacy
Yujia Li, Alexandre Moreira, Miguel Heleno
Distributed energy resources (DERs) such as rooftop solar, batteries, demand response, and electric vehicles can contribute to power system reliability, yet their performance is di…
Time Window-Based Netload Range Cost Curves for Coordinated Transmission and Distribution Planning Under Uncertainty
Yujia Li, Alexandre Moreira, Miguel Heleno
Mechanisms to coordinate transmission and distribution planning should be regulatory compliant and keep the spheres of DSO and TSO decisions separate, without requiring disclosure…
