Energy System Modelling

This course is an introduction to mathematical optimisation modelling applied to diverse problems in planning and operating energy systems, in particular energy systems with a high share of variable (weather-dependent) wind and solar generation. We will go from a solid theoretical grounding in formulating different kinds of optimisation problems, to practical strategies to solve them under real-world conditions. To do so, we will formulate problems in Matlab using the YALMIP optimisation package.

The final grade consists 100% of an individual exam.
