Houwing, M. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Ilic, M.D. (author), De Schutter, B. (author)With the increasing application of distributed energy resources and information technologies in the electricity infrastructure, innovative possibilities for incorporating the demand side more actively in power system operation are enabled. At the residential level energy costs could be reduced with intelligent price-based control concepts ...conference paper 2009

Houwing, M. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Heijnen, P.W. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, H. (author)With an increasing use of distributed energy resources and intelligence in the electricity infrastructure, the possibilities for minimizing costs of household energy consumption increase. Technology is moving toward a situation in which households manage their own energy generation and consumption, possibly in cooperation with each other. As a...conference paper 2007

Arnold, M. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Andersson, G. (author), De Schutter, B. (author)The optimal operation of an integrated electricity and natural gas infrastructure is investigated. The couplings between the electricity system and the gas system are modeled by so-called energy hubs, which represent the interface between the loads on the one hand and the transmission infrastructures on the other. To increase reliability and...conference paper 2009

Negenborn, R.R. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, J. (author)We discuss an extension of a scheme recently proposed for multi-agent control of large-scale networks, like power networks, road traffic networks, water networks, etc. The original scheme uses serial sequences of agent interactions that under some assumptions make agents locally choose actions that are globally optimal. However, some weaknesses...conference paper 2007

Houwing, M. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), De Schutter, B. (author)The increasing presence of distributed energy resources, information and intelligence in the electricity infrastructure increases the possibilities for larger economic efficiency of power systems. This work shows the possible cost advantages of applying a model predictive control (MPC) strategy to residential energy systems. MPC can take future...conference paper 2008

Negenborn, R.R. (author), Houwing, M. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, J. (author)With the increase in the number of distributed energy resources and the amount of intelligence in electricity infrastructures, the possibilities for minimizing costs of household energy consumption increase. Household systems are hybrid systems, in the sense that they exhibit both continuous and discrete dynamics. In this paper the mixed-logical...conference paper 2009

Hug-Glanzmann, G. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Andersson, G. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, H. (author)As power systems generally are large interconnected systems controlled by several parties, centralized optimal power flow (OPF) control taking the entire grid into account is often not feasible. To use optimal control in power systems nevertheless, the overall system is decomposed into areas with associated subproblems, which are solved in an...conference paper 2007

Negenborn, R.R. (author), Sahin, A. (author), Lukszo, Z. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Morari, M. (author)Irrigation canals transport water from water sources (such as large rivers and lakes) to water users (such as farmers). Irrigation canals are typically very large in nature, covering vast geographical areas, and involving a significant number of control actuators, such as pumps, gates, and locks. The control of such canals is aimed at...conference paper 2009

Negenborn, R.R. (author), De Schutter, B. (author), Hellendoorn, H. (author)We consider multi-agent, or distributed, control of transportation networks, like traffic, water, and power networks. These networks typically have a large geographical span, modular structure, and a large number of components that require control. We discuss the necessity of a multi-agent control setting in which multiple agents control parts...conference paper 2006

Arnold, M. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Andersson, G. (author), De Schutter, B. (author)The optimal operation of an integrated electricity and natural gas system is investigated. The couplings between these two systems are modeled by energy hubs, which serve as interface between the loads and the transmission infrastructures. Previously, we have applied a distributed control scheme to a static three-hub benchmark system. In this...conference paper 2009

Tian, X. (author), Negenborn, R.R. (author), Van Overloop, P.J.A.T.M. (author), Mostert, E. (author)In the field of operational water management, Model Predictive Control (MPC) has gained popularity owing to its versatility and flexibility. The MPC controller, which takes predictions, time delay and uncertainties into account, can be designed for multi-objective management problems and for large-scale systems. Nonetheless, a critical obstacle,...conference paper 2014

(author)Emergency voltage control problems in electric power networks have stimulated the interest for the implementation of online optimal control techniques. Briefly stated, voltage instability stems from the attempt of load dynamics to restore power consumption beyond the capability of the transmission and generation system. Typically, this situation...conference paper 2007
