Abstract
We present, an approach to parallelizing optimal power flow (OPF) that is suitable for coarse-grained distributed implementation and is appl icable to very large interconnected power systems. We demonstrate the approach on several medium size systems, including IEEE Test Systems a nd parts of the ERCOT system. Our simulations demonstrate the feasibil ity of distributed implementation of OPF. Rough estimates are made of parallel efficiencies and speed-ups.
