We present an approach to parallelizing optimal power flow (OPF) that is suitable for coarse-grained distributed implementation and is applicable to very large interconnected power systems. We demonstrate the approach on several medium size systems, including IEEE Test Systems and parts of the ERCOT system. Our simulations demonstrate the feasibility of distributed implementation of OPF. Rough estimates are made of parallel efficiencies and speed-ups.
