Generation Expansion Planning (GEP) models considering uncertainties on renewable energy resources (RES)

The following files solve the GEP problem for three scenarios of wind and solar production using different approaches:

  • Stochastic-GEP.gms: Two-Stage Stochastic Generation Expansion Planning
  • Stochastic-GEP-Benders.gms: Two-Stage Stochastic Generation Expansion Planning - Using Benders
  • Stochastic-GEP-Benders-Multicut.gms: Two-Stage Stochastic Generation Expansion Planning - Using Benders Multicut
  • Stochastic-GEP-LR.gms: Two-Stage Stochastic Generation Expansion Planning - Using Lagrangian Relaxation (LR)
  • Stochastic-GEP-Multistage.gms: Multi-Stage Stochastic Generation Expansion Planning
  • ARO-GEP.gms: Two-Stage Adaptive Robust Optimization (ARO)-Generation Expansion Planning (GEP)
  • WCS-GEP.gms: Worst Case Scenario -Generation Expansion Planning (GEP)

The models are developed in GAMS and solved with CPLEX, but you could use any other solver (e.g., GUROBI, Cbc).
