Abstract

This paper presents a new approach for solving the multi-year co-optimized generation and transmission expansion planning problem with renewable energy resources in geographic information systems (GIS). The proposed optimization model is to determine when (which year), where (which cell), and what (which type) generators and transmission lines will be built for minimizing the sum of investment costs, operation costs (including energy and emission costs), and load shedding costs during the planning horizon. Prevailing constraints include power balance requirements, branch limits, power limits of generators, and construction limits of cells. A two-step approach to combine Dijkstra's algorithm and mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) is introduced for solving the large-scale optimization problem. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is validated by numerical case studies on a 9-bus system.
