This is Wat We Do

SPEAKER: Albert Solà Vilalta

LANGUAGE: Català

PLACE:  C5 Building, Fooma C5-016, Campus Nord, UPC, Barcelona. 
DATE: Thursday, May the 16th,  2024  Time: 12:30

ABSTRACT: In this talk I will present some of the research projects in which I am working, or I have been working recently. The goal is to discover sinergies with the DEIO seminar participans, as well as to promote future collaborations. I'll focus in the presentation of three different projects:  unified participation of energy communities into multiple electrical markets, optimal coordination of several energy storage units and decomposition methors, and economical implication and prospect for the sustainable development in Zambia.

The title of this talk is a tribute to the seminar that takes place at the University of Edinbrugh and at Heriot-Watt University under the same name, where researchers of both universities present their research interests to first year doctoral students to help them choosing the subject of their doctoral thesis.
