The Ohio State University received a $317,483 National Science Foundation Project Grant under the Engineering (47.041) program to develop a methodology for coordinating resilience interventions between electric power distribution systems and proactive consumers from June 1, 2023 to May 31, 2026. The University aims to provide a bilevel optimization framework that allows achieving maximum resilience for the distribution system and consumers' individual needs given resilience budget constraints. This will be accomplished by improving algorithms to solve complex bilevel problems using novel relaxation and decomposition techniques reflecting physical and economic relationships. The grant supports research to model interrelated resilience problems and coordinate conflicting objectives between agents, as well as education of students. Results may apply to other critical infrastructures and provide efficient algorithms for industry.
