Large scale stochastic optimization problems are too difficult to be solved directly numerically. One way of dealing with this type of problems is to decompose the main problem in smaller one and coordinate the solutions of each smaller problems. In a deterministic setting spatial decomposition methods are well known but quite useless if directly used in a stochastic setting. We present the Dual Approximate Dynamic Programming algorithm which solve an approximation of the original problem by decomposition. We will present the algorithm, some thoughts and results about its convergence and numerical application and results over an energy management problem.
