A chance-constrained small modular reactor siting model -- a case study for the Province of Saskatchewan, Canada

In this study, a chance-constrained small modular reactor siting (CCSS) model has been first proposed for planning regional electric power systems in the Province of Saskatchewan under the pressure of greenhouse gas emission mitigation. Through incorporating three programming methods (interval linear programming, chance-constrained programming, and mixed-integer programming) in an optimization framework, the CCSS model could effectively deal …
