Certifying Global Optimality of AC-OPF Solutions via sparse polynomial optimization

We report the experimental results on certifying 1% global optimality of solutions of AC-OPF instances from PGLiB via the CS-TSSOS hierarchy -- a moment-SOS based hierarchy that exploits both correlative and term sparsity, which can provide tighter SDP relaxations than Shor's relaxation. Our numerical experiments demonstrate that the CS-TSSOS hierarchy scales well with the problem size and is indeed useful in certifying global optimality of solutions for large-scale real world problems, e.g., the AC-OPF problem. In particular, we are able to certify 1% global optimality for a challenging AC-OPF instance with 6515 buses involving 14398 real variables and 63577 constraints.
