In electrical distribution grids, the constantly increasing number of power generation devices based on renewables demands a transition from a centralized to a distributed generation paradigm. In fact, power injection from Distributed…
In many power grids, a large portion of the energy costs for commercial and industrial consumers are set with reference to the coincident peak load, the demand during the maximum system-wide peak, and their own maximum peak load, the…
Battery electric freight trains are crucial for decarbonization by providing zero-emission transportation alternatives. The proper adoption of battery electric freight trains depends on an efficient battery electrification strategy,…
We investigate the ability of a homogeneous collection of deferrable energy loads to behave as a battery; that is, to absorb and release energy in a controllable fashion up to fixed and predetermined limits on volume, charge rate and…
The future power system is increasingly interconnected via both AC and DC interconnectors. These interconnectors establish links between previously decoupled energy markets. In this paper, we propose an optimal multi-market energy storage…
Optimization of materials performance for specific applications often requires balancing multiple aspects of materials functionality. Even for the cases where generative physical model of material behavior is known and reliable, this often…
This paper studies charging scheduling problem of electric vehicles (EVs) in the scale of a microgrid (e.g., a university or town) where a set of charging stations are controlled by a central aggregator. A bi-objective optimization problem…

Deploying machine learning (ML) models often requires both fairness and privacy guarantees. Both of these objectives present unique trade-offs with the utility (e.g., accuracy) of the model. However, the mutual interactions between…
While the space of renewable energy forecasting has received significant attention in the last decade, literature has primarily focused on machine learning models that train on only one objective at a time. A host of classification (and…
We study the Pareto frontier (optimal trade-off) between utility and separation, a fairness criterion requiring predictive independence from sensitive attributes conditional on the true outcome. Through an information-theoretic lens, we…
Autonomous navigation often requires the simultaneous optimization of multiple objectives. The most common approach scalarizes these into a single cost function using a weighted sum, but this method is unable to find all possible trade-offs…
The microgrid concept offers high flexibility and resilience due to the possibility of switching between grid-connected and stand-alone operation. This renders microgrids an auspicious solution for rural areas and critical infrastructure.…
Information engines harness measurement and feedback to convert energy into useful work. In this study, we investigate the fundamental trade-offs between ergotropic output power, thermodynamic efficiency and information-to-work conversion…
In a multiobjective optimization problem a solution is called Pareto-optimal if no criterion can be improved without deteriorating at least one of the other criteria. Computing the set of all Pareto-optimal solutions is a common task in…
