TY - CHAP A1 - Hayn, Christine A1 - Humpola, Jesco A1 - Koch, Thorsten A1 - Schewe, Lars A1 - Schweiger, Jonas A1 - Spreckelsen, Klaus T1 - Perspectives T2 - Evaluating Gas Network Capacities N2 - After we discussed approaches to validate nominations and to verify bookings, we consider possible future research paths. This includes determining technical capacities and planning of network extensions.

Each approach is analyzed individually, as well as the complete solvers for these problems. We demonstrate that the presented approaches can successfully solve large-scale real-world instances.

Our approach handles both the discrete settings and the nonlinear aspects of gas physics. Our main contribution is an innovative coupling of mixed-integer (linear) programming (MILP) methods with nonlinear programming (NLP) that exploits the special structure of a suitable approximation of gas physics, resulting in a global optimization method for this type of problem.
