Abstract: This special issue presents a tutorial and five applications of operations research in the energy industry. The tutorial discusses the use of mixed-complementarity problems for modeling energy policies. The applications include optimizing plant dispatch decisions in an electricity grid, managing oil and gas pipelines, securing cost-effective coal supplies for power plants, and implementing inspection plans for energy-efficiency programs at an electric utility.
