    Dear colleagues, 
     
              Hope you just had a nice holiday weekend!  

              If you are interested in knowing optimization problems in power systems/markets, or the recent development on solving large-scale security-constrained unit commitment, the following tutorial might be of your interest. 

    Our IEEE Task Force on Solving Large Scale Optimization Problems in Electricity Market and Power System Application is happy to invite you to join a 4-part web tutorial on optimization models and solution methods. The tutorial covers some fundamental concepts in modeling and optimization, major optimization problems in power systems and markets, and most recent development on improving computational performance of large-scale power system optimization problems.

    December 2nd:  Optimization in ISOs: Introduction to Optimization and Modeling. Speakers: Feng Qiu (Argonne), Yonghong Chen (MISO), and Feng Pan (PNNL)

    December 4th: Optimization in Utilities: Mainstream Optimization Problems in Utilities. Speaker: Khai Le (PowerCost Inc)

    December 7th : UC + MIPLearn and Power System Optimization. Speaker: Alinson Xavier (Argonne)

    December 11th: MILP Solvers and Performance Tuning Applications. Speaker: Zonghao Gu (Gurobi)

    LIVE WEBINAR EVENT December 11, 2020 (1:00 PM ET): MILP Solvers and Performance Tuning Applications


    We look forward to your participation. Please forward this message on to your colleagues who may be interested in attending. The tutorial is free to PES members and minimum cost for nonmembers.
