Energy models based on optimization principles are valuable tools for optimizing the design elements and the operating strategies of multiple distributed energy systems (DES). Such models, commonly formulated as Mixed-Integer Linear Programs (MILP), achieve a good trade-off between model accuracy and computational complexity. However, the latter aspect depends heavily on the number of variables. Hence,...
Buildings are expected to significantly contribute to the adoption of renewables, and mainly solar technologies due to largely unutilised roof space. A framework to assist the decision making process towards the optimal integration of solar energy in urban areas, with the focus on photovoltaic panels, considering spatiotemporal aspects, is presented using a village in Switzerland as a case study....
We present new formulations of the ‘energy hub’ model and evaluate their performance. The energy hub model consists of a mixed-integer linear programming problem that balances energy demand and supply between multiple energy carriers by determining the optimal conversion and storage schedule within certain constraints. The new formulations extend the model to account for performance constraints concerning...
