• Authors: Meiyi Li, Javad Mohammadi
• Abstract summary: We propose LOOP-LC 2.0 as a learning-based approach for solving the power dispatch problem. A notable advantage of the LOOP-LC 2.0 framework is its ability to ensure near-optimality and strict feasibility of solutions. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the LOOP-LC 2.0 methodology in terms of training speed, computational time, optimality, and solution feasibility.

• Abstract: The evolution towards a more distributed and interconnected grid necessitates large-scale decision-making within strict temporal constraints. Machine learning (ML) paradigms have demonstrated significant potential in improving the efficacy of optimization processes. However, the feasibility of solutions derived from ML models continues to pose challenges. It's imperative that ML models produce solutions that are attainable and realistic within the given system constraints of power systems. To address the feasibility issue and expedite the solution search process, we proposed LOOP-LC 2.0(Learning to Optimize the Optimization Process with Linear Constraints version 2.0) as a learning-based approach for solving the power dispatch problem. A notable advantage of the LOOP-LC 2.0 framework is its ability to ensure near-optimality and strict feasibility of solutions without depending on computationally intensive post-processing procedures, thus eliminating the need for iterative processes. At the heart of the LOOP-LC 2.0 model lies the newly proposed generalized gauge map method, capable of mapping any infeasible solution to a feasible point within the linearly-constrained domain. The proposed generalized gauge map method improves the traditional gauge map by exhibiting reduced sensitivity to input variances while increasing search speeds significantly. Utilizing the IEEE-200 test case as a benchmark, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the LOOP-LC 2.0 methodology, confirming its superior performance in terms of training speed, computational time, optimality, and solution feasibility compared to existing methodologies.
