Project # 6

Assignment

The goal of the project is the implementation of the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem.

Problem description. The Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem is a mathematical optimization problem in electrical power systems that aims to find the optimal operating conditions for the generation, transmission, and consumption of electrical power. The objective is to minimize the overall cost of producing and delivering electricity while satisfying various operational constraints and maintaining the stability of the power system. The goal of the project is to study OPF and implement it as an optimization problem in C++ or Python. The correctness of the implementation will be demonstrated by using a simple optimization method

The goals of the project are:

1. study the OPF
2. find OPF instances
3. implement as an optimization problem
