Planning Deeply Decarbonized Power Systems

Abstract: 

The energy transition is reshaping power system planning and operation as renewable penetration increases and electrification expands into sectors such as heating and cooling, making systems more dependent on weather-driven variability and uncertainty. Addressing these challenges requires models that can capture both short-term operational flexibility and long-term uncertainty, supported by suitable solution methods. This presentation examines the challenges of long-term power system planning under uncertainty in the context of the energy transition and explores the use of decomposition methods, along with potential improvements to enhance their performance and applicability.
