Abstract

Social welfare maximization problems in the day-ahead energy market can be formulated as large-scale mixed-integer programming (MIP) problems. These problems are computationally challenging due to the integrality constraints and the high dimensionality introduced by temporal coupling across time periods. Standard linear relaxations often provide weak bounds, limiting the efficiency of branch-and-bound algorithms.

In this talk, we present a semidefinite programming (SDP)-based relaxation approach for these MIP problems. We analyze the modeling power of various classes of valid inequalities and demonstrate, through numerical results, how they contribute to tightening the relaxation and improving computational performance.
