Abstract

We address the issue of computing a global minimizer of the AC Optimal Power Flow problem. We introduce valid inequalities to strengthen the Semidefinite Programming relaxation, yielding a novel Conic Programming relaxation. Leveraging these Conic Programming constraints, we dynamically generate Mixed-Integer Linear Programming (MILP) relaxations, whose solutions asymptotically converge to global minimizers of the AC Optimal Power Flow problem. We apply this iterative MILP scheme on the IEEE PES PGLib [2] benchmark and compare the results with two recent Global Optimization approaches.
