Workshop Season-school on Demand Flexibility in Cyber-physical Energy Systems

The energy transition (transformation from fossil-based to zero-carbon) relies on the electrification of society and is a key driver to achieving environmental goals. This process entails moving from a traditional energy system to a Smart Grid with multiple demand/generation sources, which asks for a synergy between ICT and emerging technologies (electric vehicles, solar panels, batteries, etc.) to keep a reliable energy system. However, this transition involves inherent (technical) issues such as e.g., congestion problems and vulnerability of the system due to potential cyber security threats. To tackle these challenges, innovative approaches combining ICT and electrical engineering are needed, demanding a stronger cross-functional collaboration and academia-industry bonding. This workshop/season-school introduces key concepts in the energy transition domain where electrical engineers and computer scientist meet.
