Latest Patents

Ramesh is credited with 1 patent, titled “System and Method for Optimal Power Grid Reactive Resource Switching.” The invention periodically runs power-flow calculations for intervals extending from the present into the future. In parallel, it formulates and solves a representative mixed-integer linear programming optimization problem to identify reactive resources that can be switched to keep voltage at key grid points within specified limits. The system then provides an output to support switching those resources in or out, enabling real-time, multi-interval optimal reactive power dispatching.
