We propose a bidding method for the participation of combined heat and power (CHP) units in the day-ahead electricity market. More specifically, we consider a district heating system where heat can be produced by CHP units or heat-only…

An optimized heat pump control for building heating was developed for minimizing CO2 emissions from related electrical power generation. The control is using weather and CO2 emission forecasts as input to a Model Predictive Control (MPC) -…

In this paper, a 1+1 server protection scheme is considered where two servers, a primary and a secondary processing server are used to serve ECG monitoring applications concurrently. The infrastructure is designed to be resilient against…

High penetration of renewable energy source makes microgrid (MGs) be environment friendly. However, the stochastic input from renewable energy resource brings difficulty in balancing the energy supply and demand. Purchasing extra energy…

With the current high levels of energy consumption of data centers, reducing power consumption by even a small percentage is beneficial. We propose a framework for thermal-aware workload distribution in a data center to reduce cooling power…

This paper presents a coordinative demand charge mitigation (DCM) strategy for reducing electricity consumption during system peak periods. Available DCM resources include batteries, diesel generators, controllable loads, and conservation…

In this paper, we develop an optimization-based systematic approach for the challenging, less studied, and important problem of optimal partitioning of multi-thermal zone buildings for the decentralized control. The proposed method consists…

A Markov decision process (MDP) framework is adopted to represent ensemble control of devices with cyclic energy consumption patterns, e.g., thermostatically controlled loads. Specifically we utilize and develop the class of MDP models…

Linear programming is used as a standard tool for optimising unit commitment or power flows in energy supply systems. For heat supply systems, however, it faces a relevant limitation: For them, energy yield depends on the output…

The demand response (DR) program of a traditional HEMS usually intervenes appliances by controlling or scheduling them to achieve multiple objectives such as minimizing energy cost and maximizing user comfort. In this study, instead of…

Increased urbanization and climate change intensify urban heat islands and degrade air quality, making current mitigation strategies insufficient. Nature-based solutions (NBSs), such as parks, green walls, roofs, and street trees, offer a…

Flexible district heating grids form an important part of future, low-carbon energy systems. We examine probabilistic state estimation in such grids, i.e., we aim to estimate the posterior probability distribution over all grid state…

In this work, a novel optimal scheduling approach is proposed for isolated microgrids (MGs) with renewable generations by incorporating demand response of electric vehicles (EVs). First, a bi-level programming-based MG scheduling model is…

Smart buildings have great potential for shaping an energy-efficient, sustainable, and more economic future for our planet as buildings account for approximately 40% of the global energy consumption. Future of the smart buildings lies in…

In this paper, the short-term operation problem for a multiple energy carrier hybrid AC/DC microgrid is discussed. The hybrid microgrid consists of AC and DC parts, which are connected by means of inverters as well as natural gas network.…
