Robust Capacity Expansion under Wildfire Ignition Risk and High Renewable Penetration
Tomás Tapia, Ryan Piansky, Yury Dvorkin +1
In power systems, the risk of wildfire ignition has increased significantly in recent years. The impact and severity of these events on energy dispatch, as well as their societal r…
Learning Reachability of Energy Storage Arbitrage
Tomás Tapia, Agustin Castellano, Enrique Mallada +1
Power systems face increasing weather-driven variability and, therefore, increasingly rely on flexible but energy-limited storage resources. Energy storage can buffer this variabil…
Reachability Guarantees for Energy Arbitrage
Tomás Tapia, Yury Dvorkin
This paper introduces a unified framework for battery energy arbitrage under uncertain market prices that integrates chance-constrained terminal state-of-charge requirements with o…
Electricity Market-Clearing With Extreme Events
Tomas Tapia, Zhirui Liang, Charalambos Konstantinou +1
Extreme events jeopardize power network operations, causing beyond-design failures and massive supply interruptions. Existing market designs fail to internalize and systematically…
