Abstract

Market actors along the energy value chain might assess challenges and opportunities from different actor perspectives and various interest criteria since every single consumer and operator has a differing technology-mediated relationship. Existing energy system optimization models, however, ignore the roles different actors play and the resulting impact they have. This research paper develops an entity-oriented multi-level optimization framework called Integrated Resource Planning and Optimization (IRPopt). The objective function exhibits a novel formal interface between the supply and demand side which merges technical and commercial aspects. This is achieved by explicit modeling of municipal market actors on one layer and state-of-the-art technology processes on another layer as well as resource flow interrelations and service agreements mechanism among and between the different layers.
