Modeling and managing energy risks

Objective

The continuous development of electricity markets (creation of day-ahead markets at the end of the 90s, recent introduction of intraday markets, integration of European electricity markets etc.), deregulation of the industry and the increasing development of renewable energies of an intermittent nature lead to major planning and risk management issues at different scales for energy industry players.
The objective of this course is to introduce students to these new issues in the energy industry, the approaches used, and the mathematical and statistical tools developed to face these new challenges. 

Planning

1. Operation of electricity markets, price modeling and energy derivative products
2. Energy demand modeling and forecasting
3. Estimation and forecasting of wind and solar potential; modeling of renewable production
4. Producer-consumers and demand response techniques
5. Probabilistic Forecasting: Mathematical Framework and Application to Wind Energy
6. Economic Framework for Renewable Energy Production
7. Case Studies in Renewable Energy Risk Management
8. Management of micro-grids and smart grids
