Optimization, Simulation
|
|
Optimisations are carried out using a single-objective evaluation function (with penalties). The search space (of generator capacities) is searched using the CMA-ES algorithm.
|
Variables
|
up to 100
|
Computation time
|
5 minutes to several hours"minutestoseveralhours" is not declared as a valid unit of measurement for this property. minutes (runtime depends on # of CPUs devoted to optimisation)
|
Objective
|
minimise average cost of electricity
|
Uncertainty modeling
|
|
Suited for many scenarios / monte-carlo
|
Yes
