Abstract

The scope of this work is to test alternative algorithmic schemes for addressing a large stochastic capacity expansion problem with specific constraints on expected energy not served. The challenge lies in decoupling scenario-specific variables, which are originally bundled by adequacy constraints, so that scenario-specific problems can be solved in parallel. The examined schemes include Benders' decomposition, the projected subgradient method, the level method, and Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition. Numerical experiments are conducted on a small-scale problem, for which we can compute the extended form solution and thus benchmark the effectiveness of the proposed decomposition algorithms.
