... provides natural gas to homes in Phoenix, and the current effective residential tariff rates of a fixed $10.70 per month and $0.92516 per therm are applied in the economic optimization analysis [ 23 ]. The electric service provider for residential buildings in Phoenix is Arizona Public Service (APS...

... with a convex approximation of the original nonconvex problem. The planner uses a descent and convergent method, with the underlying optimization problem being feasible and convex. A yearlong simulation with a realistic plant shows that both of the features of the proposed architecture—periodic model...
