CITIES invites to Workshop / Webinar August 12, 2020, 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM CEST
In the quest for fossil-free cities and a fossil-free building sector, there is continued need to maximise energy efficiency of buildings and energy systems in cities. Even the limited energy use should to a maximum possible extent come from renewable sources, and the classical challenge of balancing demand and supply becomes an issue, which calls for flexible operation of all units.
Contemporary digital and data-driven methods are key to optimize the operation of buildings and district energy systems such that use of fossil fuels can be minimized without compromising on comfort and functionality of the built environment. The workshop will give an overview of potentials and state-of-the-art technologies in the field.
The project on continuous time stochastic modelling (CTSM) is very useful for grey-box modelling of physical systems using data. The grey-box modelling approach bridges the gap between physical and statistical modelling. The solution is widely used for estimating and identifying models for physical systems, like the heat dynamics of a building, the hydraulics in a …
Last week DTU held the summer school TIME SERIES ANALYSIS – with a focus on modelling and forecasting in energy systems. 44 PhD students and postdocs mainly from universities in Europe have spent a week at DTU Compute to learn about smart energy systems and intelligent energy savings. The summer school was arranged by the …
The government’s more ambitious targets for CO2 reductions require new technologies, but also a new tax structure that will serve as an incentive to use types of energy with the lowest CO2 emissions, says CITIES’ Henrik Madsen.
