Change LP solver to avoid CPLEX free licence limits

• Reduce the computation default time and/or tolerance on optimality for CPLEX @gupta

• Reduce the computation default time and/or tolerance on optimality for ORtools @ruzhu

• Aim at 1 min evaluation (CPLEX community and ORtools)

• What is the timeframe we can get with this?

• Look at other open source LP solvers (pyomo, OR-tools) that can solve large problems

• Select one (we all decide in the hydesign meeting) and reimplement the EMS.

Implement base EMS in the following modelling languages:

• OR tools
• CVXPY
• Pyomo

Disqualified for not windows friendly

• COIN-OR (CBC)

Run evaluation on a few cases

• Run with OR-tools SCIP and CP-SAT as well as existing CPLEX Community version
• Implement the 10% minimum battery state
• set first and last timestep SOC to 50%

Run a sizing optimization on each of the implementations on one of the example cases. Run OR tools with (and compare to the current CPLEX implementation)

• SCIP
• GLPK
• GLOP
• CP-SAT
