Analyzing Performance and Scalability of Benders Decomposition for Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning Models
David L. Cole, Michael Lau, Xinliang Dai +2
Generation and Transmission Expansion Planning (GTEP) problems co-optimize generation and transmission expansion, enabling them to provide better planning decisions than traditiona…
A Parallelized Cutting-Plane Algorithm for Computationally Efficient Modelling to Generate Alternatives
Michael Lau, Filippo Pecci, Jesse D. Jenkins
Contemporary macro energy systems modelling is characterized by the need to represent strategic and operational decisions with high temporal and spatial resolution and represent di…
Modelling to Generate Continuous Alternatives: Enabling Real-Time Feasible Portfolio Generation in Convex Planning Models
Michael Lau, Xin Wang, Neha Patankar +1
Decarbonization provides new opportunities to plan energy systems for improved health, resilience, equity, and environmental outcomes, but challenges in siting and social acceptanc…
Measuring Exploration: Review and Systematic Evaluation of Modelling to Generate Alternatives Methods in Macro-Energy Systems Planning Models
Michael Lau, Neha Patankar, Jesse D. Jenkins
As decarbonization agendas mature, macro-energy systems modelling studies have increasingly focused on enhanced decision support methods that move beyond least-cost modelling to im…
