Advanced control strategies to exploit the hydropower potential enhancing ancillary services provision to the power system

Francesco Gerini

The European Union's Green Deal aims for a 55% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. To reach this goal, a massive integration of Renewable Energy Sources (RES) into the power grid is necessary. As RES become a large part of the electricity genera ...

End-to-End Learning for Stochastic Optimization: A Bayesian Perspective

Daniel Kuhn, Tobias Sutter, Yves Rychener

We develop a principled approach to end-to-end learning in stochastic optimization. First, we show that the standard end-to-end learning algorithm admits a Bayesian interpretation and trains a posterior Bayes action map. Building on the insights of this an ...

Small-scale organic Rankine cycle turbo-generator for waste heat recovery on truck engine

Kévin Rosset

Truck engine waste heat recovery (WHR) systems have been investigated for many years. Among them, organic Rankine cycle (ORC) systems show the highest potential, but still lack efficient small-scale expansion devices, in practice. Proposed expanders are of ...

Aspects of the energy transition and their effects on power systems

Laurent Vincent Pagnier

Most European countries are committed to an energy transition which consists in the substitution of conventional CO2 emitting energy sources by new renewable energy sources (RES), in particular wind and solar power. As opposed to conventional energy source ...

Constrained hierarchical networked optimization for energy markets

Lorenzo Nespoli

In this paper, we propose a distributed control strategy for the design of an energy market. The method relies on a hierarchical structure of aggregators for the coordination of prosumers (agents which can produce and consume energy). The hierarchy reflect ...

A predictive pan-European economic and production dispatch model for the energy transition in the electricity sector

Philippe René Joseph Jacquod

The energy transition is well underway in most European countries. It has a growing impact on electric power systems as it dramatically modifies the way electricity is produced. To ensure a safe and smooth transition towards a panEuropean electricity produ ...

Not if, but when? Simulating the impact of timing the nuclear phase-out in Switzerland

Matthias Finger, Reinier Verhoog, Paul Adrianus Van Baal

Swiss electricity companies are faced with uncertainty with regards to the future operation of nuclear power plants in the country. After Fukushima in 2011, the government decided on a gradual phase-out, but only provided a tentative planning. Hence, no ne ...
