Optimal Prediction in Local Electricity Markets

在接下来的四年里，该奖学金旨在建立一个国际领先的研究团队，在当地能源市场的随机建模。研究员和研究人员将开发理论和数值方法来解决英国电力系统中出现的数学问题，重点是对社区规模进行建模，以实现这些市场设计的最大福利效益。该研究计划将在研究员现有的能源小组的背景下进行，该小组包括三名在电力系统和储能领域工作的博士生。这项工作将涉及与英国其他probabilists，英国，美国和加拿大的电力系统工程师以及英国行业专家在这些问题上的工作富有成效的互动。它将通过创建算法和软件产生重大影响，从而为当地电力市场的规划和运营问题提供有效的数值解决方案。一个长期的影响将是进一步建立曼彻斯特（和英国）作为一个中心，为有才华的研究人员在跨学科的应用概率论的电力系统。

Over the next four years this Fellowship aims to build an internationally leading research team in stochastic modelling of local energy markets. The Fellow and researcher will develop theory and numerical methods to solve emerging mathematical problems in UK power systems, with a focus on modelling the community scale, in order to achieve the maximum welfare benefit from the design of these markets. The research programme will be carried out in the context of the Fellow's existing Energy group, which includes three PhD students working in power systems and energy storage. This work will involve fruitful interactions with other probabilists in the UK, power systems engineers in the UK, US and Canada, and UK industry experts working on such problems. It will have significant impact through the creation of algorithms and software, enabling the efficient numerical solution of planning and operational problems for local electricity markets. A longer term impact will be to further establish Manchester (and the UK) as a centre for talented researchers in cross-disciplinary applications of probability theory to power systems.
