Please correct me if I am wrong.
The smartmarket code is pretty stable. It has been actively used by us
for years. The state estimator code was never really finished, but was
included for those who might find it useful.
One of my stduents is working on 'Benefit Maximization". can I USE
matpower
for the same as social welfare maximization?
Sure.
I am teaching students on power trading (selling and bidding,
auction power
markets) and EMS.
Some querries.
1. Can we use the 'runopf' for power loss minimization.
If you give all of the generators equal linear costs, then the OPF
will implicitly minimize losses (the only way to reduce costs is by
reducing losses).
2. Can we use them matpower code for multi objective optimization
MATPOWER does not itself include multi-objective optimization.
However, it does have a very general cost function and you might be
able to build your own multi-objective optimization around MATPOWER's
OPF.
3. Is is possible to have SCADA on MAtlab?. This will be great for the
students.
I hesitate to comment on what is and is not possible with Matlab,
especially, when I'm not really sure what you mean be "have SCADA on
Matlab". I imagine it is possible to implement just about anything in
Matlab, given the time and resources. We do not have any plans for
SCADA and MATPOWER.
