Advances in Energy System Optimization

The papers presented in this volume address diverse challenges in energy systems, ranging from operational to investment planning problems, from market economics to technical and environmental considerations, from distribution grids to transmission grids and from theoretical considerations to data provision concerns and applied case studies.

The International Symposium on Energy System Optimization (ISESO) was held on November 9 th and 10 th 2015 at the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS) and was organized by HITS, Heidelberg University and Karlsruhe Institute of Technology.

Discusses challenges of today´s and tomorrow´s energy systems Contributions from different disciplines, such as mathematics, electrical engineering, economics and operations research Fosters the interdisciplinary discussions of the challenges Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras
