Investment on generation system and transmission network is an important issue in power
systems, and investment reversibility closely depends on performing an optimal planning. In …

In recent years, a large number of research works have been carried out in transmission
expansion planning (TEP) field. TEP problem has been investigated with different views …

This paper presents a new uncertainty handling framework for optimal generation expansion
planning (GEP) amalgamating the notions of single-stage and two-stage robust optimization …

The unbundling of the electricity industry introduced new uncertainties and escalated the
existing ones in transmission expansion planning. In this paper, a multi-stage transmission …

Deregulation of the electric power industry has introduced new uncertainties for market
participants and made planning of transmission expansion more difficult. More flexible …

Due to the significant improvements of power generation technologies and the trend of
replacing traditional power plants with renewable generation resources, the generation …

Widespread utilization of plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) would incur more uncertainties,
and thus challenge the traditional planning strategies for distribution systems. In this paper …

The restructuring of global power industries has introduced a number of challenges, such as
conflicting planning objectives and increasing uncertainties, to transmission network …

This paper proposes a transmission planning framework in a market environment in which
only the generation sector is deregulated. The proposed framework is based on modeling …

The increasing share of variable renewable energy sources creates a need for flexibility
resources in the power system operations. This paper presents suggestions for …
