Abstract: In light of the ongoing developments in the climate crisis, it is necessary to consider factors beyond the sole economic perspective in energy supply network planning. In an effort to minimize costs, such as the ones for necessary grid expansions, the objective is also to reduce the carbon emissions of the network to the greatest extent possible. This gives rise to a classical multiobjective optimization problem involving conflicting objective functions. The presence of choices in the model, coupled with the consideration of stationary flow equations, results in an optimization problem with a mixed-integer nonconvex structure. In this talk, we encounter both, a novel solution framework for computing a pseudo enclosure of the nondominated set for such problem types as well as a modeling extension of the objectives to include homeowner acceptance. For all these aspects we provide numerical experiments.
