Last week, a delegation from the Lab for Modeling and Simulation, including Prof. Pruckner, Daniel Bayer, Jonas Schiller, and our external PhD student Martin Stöckl, attended the inaugural ACM Sustainability Week in Banff, Canada.

Unser Mitarbeiter Daniel Bayer vertritt den Lehrstuhl bei der 7. VDI-Fachkonferenz "Gebäudeautomation – intelligent und nachhaltig" in Baden-Bande.

Our paper “Optimizing heat pump and electric vehicle flexibility through predictive home energy management systems within urban energy digital twins” has now been published in Energy and Buildings.

For the past 10 weeks, our colleague Jonas Schiller visited our project partners at the National Technical University of Athens, collaborating with the Department of Transportation Planning and Engineering in Athens.

Our colleague Daniel Bayer attended the the 13th IEEE Conference on Technologies for Sustainability

(SusTech 2026) in Orange County, California to exchange ideas on the future of load forecasting, digital twins and spatial-temporal carbon intensity factor modeling.

We are pleased to welcome Thanh Mai Pham to our research group as a PhD Researcher.

Our paper titled “Identification of Spatial Energy Demand Shift Flexibilities of EV Charging at the Regional Level through Agent-Based Simulation,” which was presented by our colleague Paul Benz at the Winter Simulation Conference 2025 in Seattle, Washington, offers insights into the flexibilities of electric vehicle charging for optimization use cases.

Last week we had the pleasure of welcoming Sangyoung Park and Kil Young Lee from the Smart Mobility Systems Group, Technische Universität Berlin for an inspiring exchange on several research topics including transportation electrification and fleet energy consumption modeling.

Our latest study analyzes how dynamic electricity tariffs affect the economic performance of residential PV-battery systems. Using data from 448 households, we show that dynamic day-ahead pricing can noticeably improve annual savings and overall system profitability.

Our colleague Jonas Schiller attended the 9th E-Mobility Power System Integration Symposium in Berlin to exchange ideas on the future of electric mobility.

Last week, our colleagues Prof. Pruckner and Jonas Schiller participated in the kick-off event for the 2023 cohort of the Urban Transition Partnership in Milan.

A student team has developed a novel app that supports homeowners to quickly and easily evaluate possible energy-savings achievable by renovation decissions for their buildings.

Im Forschungsprojekt ESM-Regio wurde ein dynamisches Simulations- und Optimierungsmodell zur integrierten Analyse sektorgekoppelter Energiesysteme auf Landkreisebene entwickelt.

Our new publication analysis the cost and emission savings potentials of intelligent vehilce-to-grid charging using EV telematics data.
