In this paper, we consider a residential heating system with renewable and non-renewable heat generation and different consumption units and investigate a stochastic optimal control problem for its cost-optimal management. As a special…

This paper deals with the problem of cost-optimal operation of smart buildings that integrate a centralized HVAC system, photovoltaic generation and both thermal and electrical storage devices. Building participation in a Demand-Response…

Utilizing solar energy to meet space heating and domestic hot water demand is very efficient (in terms of environmental footprint as well as cost), but in order to ensure that user demand is entirely covered throughout the year needs to be…

In this paper, we consider a domestic standalone microgrid equipped with local renewable energy generation such as photovoltaic panels, consumption units, and battery storage to balance supply and demand and investigate the stochastic…

In smart energy communities, households of a particular geographical location make a cooperative group to achieve the community's social welfare. Prosumers are the users that both consume and produce energy. In this paper, we develop…

We consider the problem of planning the aggregate energy consumption for a set of thermostatically controlled loads for demand response, accounting price forecast trajectory and thermal comfort constraints. We address this as a…

The heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC) system accounts for substantial energy use in buildings, whereas a large group of occupants are still not actually feeling comfortable staying inside. This poses the issue of developing…

The optimal control of sustainable energy supply systems, including renewable energies and energy storage, takes a central role in the decarbonization of industrial systems. However, the use of fluctuating renewable energies leads to…

Home energy management systems (HEMSs) are expected to become a crucial part of future smart grids. However, there is a limited number of studies that comprehensively assess the potential economic benefits of HEMS for consumers under real…

We study the optimal control of district heating networks using a reduced order model based on a system theoretic description close to the underlying Euler equations. In the presented scenarios, the central task is to limit the maximal…

In this work, we develop an optimal water heater control method for a smart home environment. It is important to notice that unlike battery storage systems, energy flow in a water heater control system is not reversible. In order to…

We study the optimal management of a photovoltaic system's battery owned by a self-consumption group that aims to minimize energy consumption costs. We assume that the photovoltaic system is composed of a photovoltaic panel and a battery,…

Modern district heating technologies have a great potential to make the energy sector more flexible and sustainable due to their capabilities to use energy sources of varied nature and to efficiently store energy for subsequent use. Central…

Heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems consume a large amount of energy in residential houses and buildings. Effective energy management of HVAC is a cost-effective way to improve energy efficiency and reduce the energy…

We consider the coupled problems of optimal thermostat programming and optimal pricing of electricity. Our framework consists of a single user and a single provider (a regulated utility). The provider sets prices for the user, who pays for…

We are concerned with the optimal control problem of the well known nonlocal thermistor problem, i.e., in studying the heat transfer in the resistor device whose electrical conductivity is strongly dependent on the temperature. Existence of…

Energy hubs convert and distribute energy resources by combining different energy inputs through multiple conversion and storage components. The optimal operation of the energy hub exploits its flexibility to increase the energy efficiency…

Demand response has been implemented by distribution system operators to reduce peak demand and mitigate contingency issues on distribution lines and substations. Specifically, the campus based commercial buildings make the major…

We propose an optimal operation control strategy for an electro-thermal microgrid. Compared to existing work, our approach increases flexibility by operating the thermal network with variable flow temperatures and in that way explicitly…

Electricity prices and the end user net load vary with time. Electricity consumers equipped with energy storage devices can perform energy arbitrage, i.e., buy when energy is cheap or when there is a deficit of energy, and sell it when it…
