Seminar

Balancing electricity using buffering devices

Jirka Fink
Karlov University, Prague

Our goal is to balance the production and the consumption of electricity in a distribution network using devices buffering energy (e.g. electrical boilers, house heating, electrical vehicles).In the talk, I will present a polynomial approximation algorithm with an absolute error which only depends on maximal power of all devices. I will discuss other methods for the model based on mathematical optimization and artificial intelligence.

Host: Michael Chertkov
