Your tasks

The energy transition requires an improved and intelligent coordination of energy sources, storage and conversion in order to handle the fluctuations of renewable sources.
The Area Automation and Control at BEST - Bioenergy and Sustainable Technologies GmbH therefore focuses on the optimal operation of sustainable biorefinery and renewable energy systems and is currently looking for a scientific employee in Graz.

Optimal control of energy systems requires the solution of optimization problems that adequately describe the underlying energy system as well as all operational constraints. However, the resulting optimization problems can become intractable if, e.g., handling seasonal storage requires long-term planning and its consideration in short-term decisions, or many energy systems need to be coordinated to obtain a global optimum, such as in the case of district heating networks or city quarters with multiple buildings, where each building in itself is a complex energy system.
The focus of the thesis will be to develop and implement different hierarchical control approaches as well as testing these in simulations and real-world implementations.

Your interests
  • Completed diploma or master's degree in a technical field of study (e.g. electrical, mechanical, information & computer or chemical and process engineering or similar)
  • Experience in control engineering and optimization
  • Programming experience with MATLAB, Python or (ideally) Julia
  • Structured way of working, flexibility, team spirit
Your benefits
  • Working in the field of future green technologies
  • Excellent working atmosphere and pleasant working environment
  • Flexible working hours and home office option
  • Personal development opportunities (e.g. dissertation as well as a wide range of internal training programs in project management, sales, etc.)
  • Location of employment: Graz
