DESCRIPTION:We propose an extension of Relax-and-Round Unit Commitment (RRU
 C) that is capable of committing generating units for larger problems fast
 er than conventional methods\, while staying within intertemporal and spat
 ial megavolt-ampere constraints. We demonstrate the performance of RRUC us
 ing synthetic congestible test systems ranging from 100 to 20\,000 buses. 
 RRUC consistently finds low-cost solutions\, independent of the problem si
 ze\, and its run time increases sub-quadratically in the number of buses. 
 RRUC can solve the full alternating current optimal power flow (ACOPF) 100
  bus system in less than a second and the 20\,000-bus system in 7 minutes.
  In contrast\, a leading state of the art solver cannot find a feasible so
 lution to the full ACOPF 100 bus system in 15 minutes.\n\nJoin: https://te
