In the wake of ever-growing power demands, power systems optimization (PSO) of power grids is crucial for ensuring efficient resource management, sustainability, and energy security. The Eastern Interconnection, a major North American power grid, consists of approximately 70K nodes (Figure 1). Aside from sheer size, optimizing such a grid is complicated by uncertainties such as…
