Energy Systems Research
Energy systems research in the IEOR Department focuses on modeling, analysis, and optimization of energy systems and, in particular, power systems. Our department is affiliated with PSERC (power systems engineering research center) of which Dr. Oren is a co-founder and site director, with CERTS (center for electric reliability technology solutions). Research activities have focused on a variety of topics including power systems economics, electricity market design, energy and environmental regulation, demand response, renewables integration, energy risk management, and the development of computational tools for planning, operation, and analysis of electric power systems. The research has been funded by PSERC, DOE, ARPA-E, NSF, FERC, CERTS, EPRI, LLNL, and the SIEMENS Co. The program boasts a long list of distinguished alums that currently hold academic faculty positions in power systems, economics, and operations research and executive positions in energy-related industries including electric utilities, energy trading, and consulting companies.
