The seasonal and variable electricity production of renewable sources, such as wind and solar power, needs to be compensated by resources that can guarantee a reliable supply of power at all times. As the penetration of variable renewable energy increases globally for economic reasons, so do the requirements for additional sources of flexible operation. The permanent balance between demand and supply of electricity is one of the reasons of the increased interest on energy storage systems in recent years. By far, the largest technology used globally to this end is Pump Hydro Storage (PHS) because of the fast response of power, large storage capacity and competitiveness. PHS project are highly site specific, and the selection and design of these projects is critical. In this article, an integer programming problem is formulated for their siting and sizing. The approach is to select grid cells from a Digital Elevation Model (DEM) that will conform reservoirs of PHS to meet minimum storage requirements. The objective function includes the costs of embankments, water conveyance systems, and electromechanical equipment. The model can be executed for different instances of DEM, and the best local solutions can be aggregated to provide regional or national requirements of power systems.

In this paper, we consider the problem of joint antenna selection and analog beamformer design in downlink single-group multicast networks. Our objective is to reduce the hardware costs by minimizing the number of required phase shifters at the trans
mitter while fulfilling given distortion limits at the receivers. We formulate the problem as an L0 minimization problem and devise a novel branch-and-cut based algorithm to solve the resulting mixed-integer nonlinear program to optimality. We also propose a suboptimal heuristic algorithm to solve the above problem approximately with a low computational complexity. Computational results illustrate that the solutions produced by the proposed heuristic algorithm are optimal in most cases. The results also indicate that the performance of the optimal methods can be significantly improved by initializing with the result of the suboptimal method.
We propose a trust-region method that solves a sequence of linear integer programs to tackle integer optimal control problems regularized with a total variation penalty. The total variation penalty allows us to prove the existence of minimizers of
the integer optimal control problem. We introduce a local optimality concept for the problem, which arises from the infinite-dimensional perspective. In the case of a one-dimensional domain of the control function, we prove convergence of the iterates produced by our algorithm to points that satisfy first-order stationarity conditions for local optimality. We demonstrate the theoretical findings on a computational example.
This paper develops a new storage-optimal algorithm that provably solves generic semidefinite programs (SDPs) in standard form. This method is particularly effective for weakly constrained SDPs. The key idea is to formulate an approximate complementa
rity principle: Given an approximate solution to the dual SDP, the primal SDP has an approximate solution whose range is contained in the eigenspace with small eigenvalues of the dual slack matrix. For weakly constrained SDPs, this eigenspace has very low dimension, so this observation significantly reduces the search space for the primal solution. This result suggests an algorithmic strategy that can be implemented with minimal storage: (1) Solve the dual SDP approximately; (2) compress the primal SDP to the eigenspace with small eigenvalues of the dual slack matrix; (3) solve the compressed primal SDP. The paper also provides numerical experiments showing that this approach is successful for a range of interesting large-scale SDPs.
Cutting plane methods play a significant role in modern solvers for tackling mixed-integer programming (MIP) problems. Proper selection of cuts would remove infeasible solutions in the early stage, thus largely reducing the computational burden witho
ut hurting the solution accuracy. However, the major cut selection approaches heavily rely on heuristics, which strongly depend on the specific problem at hand and thus limit their generalization capability. In this paper, we propose a data-driven and generalizable cut selection approach, named Cut Ranking, in the settings of multiple instance learning. To measure the quality of the candidate cuts, a scoring function, which takes the instance-specific cut features as inputs, is trained and applied in cut ranking and selection. In order to evaluate our method, we conduct extensive experiments on both synthetic datasets and real-world datasets. Compared with commonly used heuristics for cut selection, the learning-based policy has shown to be more effective, and is capable of generalizing over multiple problems with different properties. Cut Ranking has been deployed in an industrial solver for large-scale MIPs. In the online A/B testing of the product planning problems with more than $10^7$ variables and constraints daily, Cut Ranking has achieved the average speedup ratio of 12.42% over the production solver without any accuracy loss of solution.
We propose a dual dynamic integer programming (DDIP) framework for solving multi-scale mixed-integer model predictive control (MPC) problems. Such problems arise in applications that involve long horizons and/or fine temporal discretizations as well
as mixed-integer states and controls (e.g., scheduling logic and discrete actuators). The approach uses a nested cutting-plane scheme that performs forward and backward sweeps along the time horizon to adaptively approximate cost-to-go functions. The DDIP scheme proposed can handle general MPC formulations with mixed-integer controls and states and can perform forward-backward sweeps over block time partitions. We demonstrate the performance of the proposed scheme by solving mixed-integer MPC problems that arise in the scheduling of central heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) plants. We show that the proposed scheme is scalable and dramatically outperforms state-of-the-art mixed-integer solvers.
