A Dynamic Capacity Allocation Model for DERs under Non-Firm Connection Agreements
Neda Vahabzad, Kenneth Bruninx, Peter Palensky +1
The growing penetration of distributed energy resources (DERs) intensifies congestion in distribution networks by introducing bidirectional power flows and increasing competition f…
Neural Network-Assisted Model Predictive Control for Implicit Balancing
Seyed Soroush Karimi Madahi, Kenneth Bruninx, Bert Claessens +1
In Europe, balance responsible parties can deliberately take out-of-balance positions to support transmission system operators (TSOs) in maintaining grid stability and earn profit,…
A Portfolio-Level Optimization Framework for Coordinated Market Participation and Operational Scheduling of Hydrogen-Centric Companies
Seyed Amir Mansouri, Kenneth Bruninx
The vision of electrolytic hydrogen as a clean energy vector prompts the emergence of hydrogen-centric companies that must simultaneously engage in electricity, hydrogen, and green…
Coupling Europe's Capacity Markets
Kamal Adekola, Laurens de Vries, Kenneth Bruninx
European Member States are increasingly introducing national capacity mechanisms (CMs) to manage growing adequacy risks. However, isolated national CMs are inefficient in highly in…
Model Predictive Control-Guided Reinforcement Learning for Implicit Balancing
Seyed Soroush Karimi Madahi, Kenneth Bruninx, Bert Claessens +1
In Europe, profit-seeking balance responsible parties can deviate in real time from their day-ahead nominations to assist transmission system operators in maintaining the supply-de…
Gaming Strategies in European Imbalance Settlement Mechanisms
Seyed Soroush Karimi Madahi, Kenneth Bruninx, Bert Claessens +1
Transmission System Operators (TSOs) rely on balancing energy provided by Balancing Service Providers (BSPs) to maintain the supply-demand balance in real time. Balance Responsible…
