Incentive-Based Load Curtailment with Limited Information: A Bilevel Zeroth-Order Learning Approach
Incentive-Based Load Curtailment with Limited Information: A Bilevel Zeroth-Order Learning Approach

Zhisen Jiang, Florian Dörfler, Saverio Bolognani

2026 PowerUp Conference, Boulder, CO 2026 Conference

This work formulates a lower-level constrained bilevel optimization to solve load curtailment problem and propose the Bi-ZOL (Bilevel Zeroth-Order Learning) algorithm. Unlike conventional black-box methods, Bi-ZOL exploits the bilevel structure to decompose the hypergradient, integrating the exact analytical information of the leader's objective with a zeroth-order estimate of the unknown response sensitivity.

Dynamic Operating Envelopes Embedded Peer-to-Peer-to-Grid Energy Trading
Dynamic Operating Envelopes Embedded Peer-to-Peer-to-Grid Energy Trading

Zhisen Jiang, Ye Guo, Jianxiao Wang

Applied Energy 2025 Journal

This paper introduces a comprehensive framework for peer-to-peer-to-grid energy trading embedded with Dynamic Operating Envelopes (DOEs). The proposed approach utilizes DOEs to facilitate the grid-friendly P2P trading of prosumers. Moreover, the so-called DOE price is proposed to allow prosumers purchase more network injection limits.
