Abstract
This paper presents a novel model for two-stage adaptive robust transmission expansion planning (AR-TEP) problem considering the uncertainty of future load demand and future wind power production. Linear decision rules (LDRs) are utilized to reformulate the AR-TEP model as a tractable mixed-integer linear programming problem, which can be directly solved by off-the-shelf optimization packages. The proposed LDR-based AR-TEP model is illustrated using the Garver 6-bus test system, the IEEE 24-bus reliability test system, and a 236-bus test system under different conditions and compared with a decomposition-based AR-TEP model that uses primal cutting planes. Also, the robustness of the expansion plans obtained from these two AR-TEP models is evaluated by carrying out an ex-post out-of-sample analysis for different values of the budget of uncertainty. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed LDR-based AR-TEP model.
