Today'd be the beginning of HICSS for Sarah Henni, Armin Golla & Frederik vom Scheidt. However, as a German saying goes "There is no beer on Hawaii, therefore I'll stay here." We know it's not true, but it gives us comfort😉The proceedings will be available 👉 hicss.hawaii.edu

When you have a conference in #Hawaii, but can only attend virtually😅🍹 #hicss

In our new paper we analyze the optimal geographic set-up of #hydrogen supply chains incl. feedback effects on the grid. We find that H2 production in Northern GER reduces total system costs. This could be incentivized w/ spatially resolved tariffs/subsidies. #hicss54 #HICSS2021

Yesterday was the last day of a successful #HICSS 2021 where we presented three papers: Sarah Henni introduced heuristic strategies to hedge the financial risk of a renewable operator using storage. Find out more here: scholarspace.manoa.hawaii.edu/handle/10125/7…

How can we support decision-makers in local #energy communities in the installation of appliances such as heat pumps? We present a solution using evolutionary #algorithms that considers economical and ecological objectives simultaneously! #HICSS #hicss54 hdl.handle.net/10125/71012

Last week, we had the chance to present “Particity”, our winning contribution from the C/sells Climathon, at the annual Regensburger Energy Congress. Our vision is to involve citizens in the #urban #mobility transition by enabling crowd investments for charging stations.

Really insightful article from the Microsoft #AI research team on understanding the workings of Ensemble Models, Knowledge Distillation and Self-distillation.

Is this the most important paper of the year? If you ask people to switch to marginally more costly clean energy, 3% do so. If you make it the default choice, 80% stick with it. We need to make choosing the polluting alternative an active decision. nature.com/articles/s4156…

"It is the leaders who time and time again have failed to treat the climate crisis like a crisis." Powerful speach by Vanessa Nakate at #BETD21.

Spektakulärer Satz: „Danach darf nicht einer Generation zugestanden werden, unter vergleichsweise milder Reduktionslast große Teile des CO2-Budgets zu verbrauchen, wenn damit zugleich den nachfolgenden Generationen eine radikale Reduktionslast überlassen ... würde.“

Das Wasserstoff-Auto ist nachgewiesen NICHT die Klimalösung. Im Verkehr hat sich die Elektrifizierung durchgesetzt. Scheindebatten sind reine Zeitverschwendung. Bitte auf die Wissenschaft hören! Armin Laschet Olaf Scholz Andreas Scheuer @ABaerbock handelsblatt.com/auto/studie-fo…

Gestern fand in Karlsruhe ein von Fridays For Future Karlsruhe toll organisierter Klimastreik statt! Wir waren auch dabei und zumindest Sarah Henni und @BenTrichter waren auch angemessen vorbereitet! 😉

The coalition agreement of the new German government is out! This week, we will share the most relevant aspects for energy policy. #1: #Storage will (finally) be defined as fourth pillar of the energy system (besides generation, consumption and transportation). #Koalitionsvertrag

#2: In 2030, 50% of heat should be produced from renewable sources. #Koalitionsvertrag - An ambitious goal, as German renewable heat production is currently at ~15%. Electrification of the heat sector is a key to achieving this target: doi.org/10.1016/j.sega…

(Home) Battery installations hit a record number of 112,000 in Germany in 2021! To fully exploit this huge potential, sharing and multi-use should be supported for BESS. Learn more in our #AppliedEnergy paper on a sharing economy for residential prosumers doi.org/10.1016/j.apen…

Happy new year! We'll start the year with a teaser for upcoming research related to #AI and #Energy: We're developing a storage agent that handles service requests for multi-use applications using deep-reinforcement-learning. Stay tuned for results coming (hopefully) soon!

Worum geht es eigentlich bei "Smart Microgrids as a Service"? Das erklärt uns heute Sarah Henni 😊 Mehr Infos unter: smaas.iism.kit.edu #Energiewende Shmoopy @BMBF_Bund

What happens if we plan our transition to #renewable energy supply centrally vs. decentrally? In our project "Storage in the Loop", we investigate how decentral planning can distribute renewable capacity more evenly and what the trade-offs in terms of costs are. Stay tuned!

Unser neues #SMaaS Video ist online! Sarah Henni spricht über die Rolle von Energy-Communities bei der #Energiewende Shmoopy youtube.com/watch?v=fx8ZGd…
