We are excited to have Zhanwei He present “Computationally Efficient and Accurate Modeling of Combined Heating and Power Systems for District Energy Applications” at SimBuild 2024 in Technical session 8: Grid Interactions and Distributed Energy Resources. The presentation introduces Modelica-based simplified combined heat and power (CHP) models that achieve computational efficiency and high accuracy. This is the outcome of our DOE project “Optimal Co-Design of Integrated Thermal-Electrical Networks and Control Systems for Grid-Interactive Efficient District (GED) Energy Systems.” Zhanwei is working with current lab members Saranya Anbarasu, Katy Hinkelman, lab alumni Ardi Moftakhari, and Lawrence Berkley National Lab’s Jianjun Hu to release these models in the Modelica Buildings Library.
We are so excited to see our lab members presenting their work. To see a summary of the presentation and details for where it will be held follow this link.
