Environmental and sustainability concerns have caused a recent surge in the penetration of
distributed energy resources into the power grid. This may lead to voltage violations in the …

The power flow equations relate the power injections and voltages in an electric power
system and are therefore key to many power system optimization and control problems …

This paper describes high-level findings from an innovative network of high-precision
phasor measurement units (PMUs), or micro-PMUs (μPMUs), designed to provide an …

This paper examines distribution systems that have a high integration level of distributed
energy resources (DERs), and addresses the design of local control methods for real-time …

The implementation of optimal power flow (OPF) methods to perform voltage and power flow
regulation in electric networks is generally believed to require extensive communication. We …

As climate change increases the risk of large-scale wildfires, wildfire ignitions from electric
power lines are a growing concern. To mitigate the wildfire ignition risk, many electric utilities …

This paper proposes an efficient algorithmic approach that overcomes the critical challenges
in real-time unbalanced distribution system state estimation, topology error processing, and …

Dispatching a fleet of distributed energy resources (DERs) in response to wholesale energy
market or regional grid signals requires solving a challenging disaggregation problem when …

Distributed-optimization-based approaches for electric vehicle (EV) charging coordination
are becoming increasingly important to enable a massive-scale EV rollout without driving …

Water pum** in drinking water distribution networks (WDNs) can be treated as a flexible
load in the power distribution network (PDN). In this article, we formulate an optimization …
