nnopf

Abstract

SAND2026-19433O The nnopf tool addresses the optimal power flow (OPF) problem by optimizing electricity delivery from generating plants to consumers. At the same time, it minimizes costs and adheres to power grid constraints. While traditional methods for solving OPF can be computationally intensive, the tool mitigates this challenge by training neural networks on power grids to predict optimal solutions for the OPF problem. Sandia National Laboratories is a multimission laboratory managed and operated by National Technology & Engineering Solutions of Sandia, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Honeywell International Inc., for the U.S. Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration under contract DE-NA0003525.
