The course has the objective of providing the basis for simulation, optimization and control of energy and environmental systems, with specific reference to the following topics: smart grids, renewable energy, water resources management. AIMS AND CONTENT LEARNING OUTCOMES The course has the objective to give basic knowledge of the methods for the definition and use of mathematical models and software tools for the planning, management and control of environmental and energy systems. The course will include methods related to: control, simulation, model predictive control, which will be described in a strict connection with applicative real case studies (renewable energy mix and polygenerative microgrids, material and energy recovery, natural resources management, etc.). AIMS AND LEARNING OUTCOMES The course provides basic knowledge related to simulation, optimization and control of energy and environmental systems, by the use of MATLAB-Simulink and LINGO software tools. The specific application areas are: optimal use of forest biomass for energy production, operational management of microgrids, water management and hydroelectric power plants. TEACHING METHODS Lectures SYLLABUS/CONTENT Information architectures, systems analysis, control, optimization for environmental and energy systems. Introduction to mathematical models: simulation, optimization, control. Applicative examples: renewable and sustainable energy mix at different spatial scales (building, microgrid, District, etc.), water resources, agro-forest biomass. Techniques for discrete time control. Model Predictive Control. Application to control problems in the environmental and energy field. Software tools: introduction to MATLAB tools that are of interest for the course. Introduction to available tools for the planning and control of sustainable energy systems and polygenerative microgrids RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY Dispense e slides del corso a cura di Michela Robba e Riccardo Minciardi Harold Klee, Randal Allen-Simulation of Dynamic Systems with MATLAB and Simulink, 2011 C.
