The ARPA-E department is seeking input through a Request for Information (RFI) for the design of a future competition aimed at accelerating the development of new methods for grid optimization. Specifically focusing on solutions for power system optimization problems, such as Security Constrained Optimal Power Flow (OPF) and Security Constrained Unit Commitment (UC). The RFI is for informational purposes only and no financial assistance applications are being accepted. Input gathered will inform ARPA-E for potential future program creation. Closing date for submissions is November 22, 2016.
