UNIVERSITY OF TWENTE RESEARCH SET TO MAKE ELECTRICITY GRIDS FUTURE-PROOF

Mathematician solves smart-grid planning problems
9 July 2012
The rise of renewable energy calls for smart electricity networks (smart grids) that can align energy supply and demand. Researchers at the Centre for Telematics and Information Technology (CTIT) at the University of Twente have developed an ICT-based management and control methodology that is able to do exactly this. Research carried out by mathematician Maurice Bosman shows that this method is effective and capable of making existing electricity grids future-proof. Bosman will defend his thesis on 5 July at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science.
