Evolutionary Computation for Smart Grid and Sustainable Energy Systems ( NO. CEC-17 )
Special Session in IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation 2019
http://www.cec2019.org/
Aim
To shape a low carbon energy future has been a crucial and urgent task under Paris Global Agreement. Numerous optimisation problems have been formulated and solved to effectively save the fossil fuel cost and relief energy waste from power system and energy application side. However, some key problems are of strong non-convex, non-smooth or mixed integer characteristics, leading to significant challenging issues for system operators and energy users. Evolutionary computation is immune from complex problem modeling formulation, and is therefore promising to provide powerful optimisation tools for intelligently and efficiently solving problems such as smart grid and various energy systems scheduling to reduce carbon consumptions.
This special session intends to reflect the state-of-the-art advances of evolutionary optimisation approaches for solving emerging problems in complex modern power and energy system. The submissions are encouraged to be focus on smart grid scheduling with integration of new participants such as renewable generations, plug-in electric vehicles, distribution generations and energy storages, multiple time-spacial energy reductions and other energy optimisation topics.
Scope
Topics of interest may cover, but are not limited to
Unit commitment, economic dispatch and optimal power flow
Optimal smart grid scheduling and integration with renewable energy generations
Energy management, intelligent coordination and control of electric vehicles/ships
Life cycle analysis and optimization of building energy systems
Charging and discharging strategies for energy storage battery systems
