Abstract:Energy systems (e.g. ventilation fans, refrigerators, and electrical vehicle chargers) often have binary or discrete states due to hardware limitations and efficiency characteristics. Typically, such systems have additional programmatic constraints, such as minimum dwell times to prevent short cycling. As a result, non-convex techniques, like dynamic programming, are generally required for optimization. Recognizing developments in the field of distributed convex optimization and the potential for energy system… Show more
