Mathematical decomposition techniques for power system expansion planning: Volume 1, Decomposition methods and uses: Final report

; ; ; ; ; ;
The objective of the long-term expansion planning is to determine when and where to build new equipment for generation and power lines for transmission of electricity. Since such problems are usually very large and complex, planners traditionally ''decompose'' the power system into separate subproblems using ''engineering judgment.'' Up to now, however, there has been no systematic verification that the results are consistent and provide unbiased solutions. This volume is concerned with overcoming certain deficiences with these traditional methods for decoupling the system into subproblems and the subsequent combining of the solutions of the subs to obtain a plan for the full system. 41 figs., 13 tabs.
