Energy Systems Research at EURO 2024
This summer’s European Conference on Operations Research (EURO 2024) at DTU in Denmark showcased pioneering work from the Chair of Energy Systems Analysis at ETH Zürich and PSI’s Laboratory for Energy Systems Analysis.
Our team members held the following presentations:
- Julian Hermann presented his work on exploiting synergies between heat supply and demand through endogenous modelling of building envelope retrofits.
- Linda Brodnicke of Reliability and Risk Engineering presented a collaborative project with Febin Kachirayil on integrating EV charging behavior into a multiple energy system model to explore trade-offs between flexibility and battery degradation.
- Martin Densing presented an analytical approach on large prosumers under capacity constraints, exploring market power effects of vertical integration and of energy storage.
- River Huang presented research on the strategic categorization of Swiss energy policy: a robust hybrid MCDA approach for socio-political assessment.
- Sining Liu presented her work on the impact of storage flexibility in energy markets under risk aversion.
- Anna Peacock of the University of Aberdeen, formerly of this Chair, presented work on a new modelling framework for offshore energy systems considering decarbonization and decommissioning options for oil and gas infrastructure.
- Lefteris Siskos chaired a session on robustness analysis in MCDA and presented work on integrated assessment of a robust Choquet integral preference model for efficient multi-criteria decision support.
- Yi Wan presented work on market effects of power-to-gas technologies and their role under future gas supply shocks using a coupled electricity-gas-hydrogen market model.
It was a stimulating exchange of ideas on critical energy challenges.
