A-priori multi-objective optimization for the short-term dispatch of distributed energy resources by G. Carpinelli, A.R. Di Fazio, S. Perna, A. Russo, M. Russo

“…In order to exploit the flexibility provided by distributed energy resources (DERs), a multi-objective optimization (MOO) approach is proposed to minimize the bus voltage deviations, the network losses, and the current security index. Effective linear power flow equations are included into both the objective functions and the inequality constraints of the MOO model, thus yielding benefits in terms of reduced model dimension and computational complexity. …”
