Load-shifting for cost, carbon, and grid benefits: A model-driven adaptive survey with German and Swiss households

Faten Ghali, Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer, Matteo Barsanti

Survey data helps understand user energy behaviour and inform policies supporting the transition to a renewable, user-centric electricity grid. To explore user responses to dynamic, hypothetical energy scenarios – such as time-varying electricity tariffs o ...

Co-optimising Design and Operation of Energy Systems using Reinforcement Learning

Marine Dominique Cauz

The energy transition is ongoing, in Switzerland and abroad, leading to an ever-increasing development of renewable energy sources. These sources are decentralised, heterogeneous, come with a high dependance on weather conditions, and are therefore hard t ...
