Job description

Job descriptionAre you our next PostDoc in exploring AI-driven approach to manage multi-energy flexibility assets and contribute to the acceleration of the on-going energy transition?As the coordinator of Digital integration of multi-energy flexibility assets in Regional Energy Systems (DigiRES) project under the joint call, TU/e will lead a consortium, involving collaborators from KU Leuven and Chalmers University together with 8 industries partners, focuses on integrating diverse multi-energy flexibility assets across five pilot sites in the Netherlands, Belgium, and Sweden. By developing and validating innovative AI solutions, we aim to advance sustainable energy transitions in Europe. We look forward to this collaborative effort and its impact on regional energy systems.Are you eager to get involved into the integrated systems approach of energy transition, to develop and implement optimization strategies to maximize the value and profitability of both industry and end-users? If so, you will enjoy the position very much.We offer you an attractive and modern workplace with access to the excellent equipment of the TU/e, a varied work, a wide range of training opportunities, and possibilities to access advanced, state-of-the-art technologies, platforms from industrial partners of the DigiRES project.Job DescriptionThe candidate is expected to develop an innovative AI-based tool for the optimal operation of multi-energy systems in different time horizons (i.e., day-ahead and close to real time), using a rolling horizon approach, indifferent of their characteristics, energy carriers that they consist of, sizes and operation modes. The market analysis is considered for exploiting multi-energy flexibility from multiple EMSs. The candidate will apply AI models at the device levels to quantify flexibility potential which will contribute to flexibility regions offered by individual EMS. At the aggregated flexibility level, joint probabilities of flexibility resources offered by multiple EMS will be determined to specify on conservative flexibility region as well as stochastic flexibility region.You will contribute to the EU project , as a part of the group at Electrical Engineering dept at TU/e.Job requirements
