Polynomial-Time Algorithms for Setting Tight Big-M Coefficients in Transmission Expansion Planning with Disconnected Buses

The increasing penetration of renewable energy and rising electricity demand are driving the need to integrate new buses and transmission lines into transmission grids. These trends are reshaping transmission expansion planning (TEP), motivating the development of effective methodologies to manage the resulting complexity. This paper introduces the longest shortest-path connection (LSPC) algorithm, a graph-based method … Read more
