Picture by Jonas van den Bogaard (Alliander) All the talks were very well attended and we got great questions. Hopefully, open source…
In our opinion, the same code that runs your simulations for energy optimization should also run in production, when you actually control your flexible assets in real time. This will decrease your time-to-market as well as your chances of failure, and it will give you more strategic options during operations. Why? 1. After the simulation…
