Question

How can a smart grid balance changing demand, renewable supply, and stored energy?

Goals

  • Simulate energy flow through a small grid.
  • Optimize a schedule for cost, reliability, or emissions.

Method

Track supply, demand, storage, and network limits at each time step.

  • Create time-series data for loads, generators, prices, and storage.
  • Write balance equations and operational constraints.
  • Solve or simulate schedules and compare them under uncertainty or changed priorities.
