Features and Improvements

  • Optimal Power Flow (OPF): Previously it was possible to attempt to solve the OPF/SCOPF with the Island-based AGC enabled. This should not have been allowed since it is using two different algorithms to dispatch the same generation. The code has been modified to present an error message 'Error: cannot solve OPF with Island-based AGC enabled.' when an OPF/SCOPF solution is attempted with Island-based AGC enabled.
  • Security Constrained OPF (SCOPF) Tool: Previously it was possible to attempt to solve the OPF/SCOPF with the Island-based AGC enabled. This should not have been allowed since it is using two different algorithms to dispatch the same generation. The code has been modified to present an error message 'Error: cannot solve OPF with Island-based AGC enabled.' when an OPF/SCOPF solution is attempted with Island-based AGC enabled.
