ACTEP 1354-bus Test System

This repository includes a new large-scale test system for Transmission Expansion Planning with AC Networks Model (ACTEP) studies. The proposed 1354-bus ACTEP system is based on Case1354pegase available in MATPOWER. The system is modified to be useful for ACTEP studies, and the candidate lines and candidate generating units are added to the system based on their role in improving the operation of the system. Global-TEP (a global solver for the ACTEP problem) is used to find the ACTEP global solutions with a guaranteed optimality gap. To better understand the proposed ACTEP 1354-bus test system, you can refer to the manuscript: M. Mehrtash, B. F. Hobbs, and Y. Cao, "A Large-Scale Test System for Transmission Expansion Planning with AC Networks Model," 2022 IEEE Texas Power and Energy Conference (TPEC), doi: 10.1109/TPEC54980.2022.9750848.
