Re: UK LV NETWORK

I don’t have a working model of the UK LV network, but if you haven’t already, you may want to try the suggestions in FAQ #5 regarding power flow convergence. Also, if it is a radial network, you might try one of the algorithms described

Re: DCOPF in MATPOWER

You will need to create your own case file that represents the transmission network you want to optimize. Appendix B in the User’s Manual describes the data file format for the case files. The generation capacity will go in the PMAX column of the gen matrix. The demand will go in the PD column

Re: Optimal reactive power dispatch with Matpower

See FAQ #1 regarding the first objective. For the second objective, you will need to specify a user-defined objective function based on deviations from the desired voltage profile. For example, specifying something like …
