    DESSLib (http://www.math2.rwth-aachen.de/DESSLib) provides benchmark instances obtained by real world data for synthesis problems of decentralized energy supply systems (DESS). In this paper, the considered optimization problem is described in detail. For a description of the functions and parameters used to describe the system and equipment, see the documentation found on DESSLib website http://www.math2.rwth-aachen.de/DESSLib.

    Decentralized energy supply systems (DESS) are highly integrated and complex systems designed to meet time-varying energy demands, e.g., heating, cooling, and electricity. The synthesis problem of DESS addresses combining various types of energy conversion units, choosing their sizing and operations to maximize an objective function, e.g., the net present value. In practice, investment costs and … Read more
