Robust Solar Hosting Capacity for Pasadena's Decarbonization: A Mathematical Program for Robustness Against Uncertainty
IEEE Energy Sustainability Magazine
How much distributed solar can a grid accommodate under uncertainty?
The Pasadena case study formulates solar hosting capacity planning as a robust optimization problem. It connects uncertainty in renewable generation and demand to distribution network constraints and practical choices along a municipal decarbonization pathway.
