    The global demand for grid-scale energy storage continues to increase. Carnot batteries (CBs) are not geographically constrained and consist of mature components. Furthermore, charging power, discharging power, and storage capacity can be sized independently and tailored to the intended use case. Designing an optimal CB also requires considering the resulting operational behavior. While design and … Read more

    We present MUSE-BB, a branch-and-bound (B&B) based decomposition algorithm for the deterministic global solution of nonconvex two-stage stochastic programming problems. In contrast to three recent decomposition algorithms, which solve this type of problem in a projected form by nesting an inner B&B in an outer B&B on the first-stage variables, we branch on all variables … Read more
