Em sua passagem pelo Brasil, David Pozo, colaborador do LAMPS e professor do Skolkovo Institute of Science and Technology, apresenta seu trabalho em parceria com o Prof. Street e o doutorando Alexandre Velloso intitulado “Um modelo probability-free para o planejamento do sistema elétrico sob alta incerteza”

The presentation will be held next Thursday, August 10, at 2 PM in the Multimeios room of the Electrical Engineering Department of PUC-Rio*

Abstract
In order to promote the broad penetration of new renewable energy generation (RG), we propose a Distributionally Robust Optimization (DRO) mathematical framework for addressing the transmission expansion planning (TEP) problem that accounts for long- and short-term uncertainty. Therefore, we consider the case in which the true probability distribution of future RG is ambiguous, i.e., difficult to accurately estimate. The resulting DRO model is robust against the worst probability distribution function that lies on a set with partial information of the true probability distribution. Thus, The proposed framework allows to find the optimal transmission expansion plan in a probability-free fashion. Thus, it does not rely on the expert criteria for defining probabilities. For the sake of demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed optimization method on an illustrative power system.
