RL-based Optimization in Battery Pools for DA flexibility

Recently, I published a paper on marketing energy flexibility, available in groups of Photovoltaic (PV)-battery-storage systems, in the Day-ahead (whole-sale) electricity market. This paper is part of the Flex+ project: https://www.flexplus.at/. Such optimization problem consists of two subproblems: a) which amounts of energy should we trade over the next day (usually in 15min granularity), b)... Continue Reading →

The COGNIPLANT project

COGNIPLANT project will develop and demonstrate an innovative approach for the advanced digitization and intelligent management of the process industries. This approach will be based on a novel vision to data monitoring and analysis, that will make the most of the latest developments on advanced analytics and cognitive reasoning, coupled with a disruptive use of...

The Flex+ project

Flex+ aims at the development of concepts and methodologies for direct control of flexibility components in groups of residential buildings. Such flexibility components may include technologies such as heat pumps, boilers, battery-storage systems or electric vehicles. In particular, an aggregator is responsible for directly controlling one or more of these technologies and optimizes the amount... Continue Reading →
