Online Submodular Resource Allocation with Applications to Rebalancing Shared Mobility Systems

Maryam Kamgarpour, Andreas Krause, Ilija Bogunovic

Motivated by applications in shared mobility, we address the problem of allocating a group of agents to a set of resources to maximize a cumulative welfare objective. We model the welfare obtainable from each resource as a monotone DR-submodular function w ...

Fiscal Policy, Relative Prices and Net Exports in a Currency Union

Christian Pröbsting

This paper studies the effects of fiscal policy on net exports, the terms of trade and expenditure switching. Using data on government spending and consumption taxes for twelve euro area countries over 1996 to 2018, it shows that fiscal austerity shocks im ...

Regional Effects of Exchange Rate Fluctuations

Christian Pröbsting

We exploit differences across U.S. states' exposure to trade to study the effects of changes in the exchange rate on economic activity. Across states, trade-weighted exchange rate depreciations are associated with increased state exports, reduced state une ...

Optimal path to a high share of distributed PV in low-voltage distribution grids

Lionel Benjamin Bloch

To limit global warming, the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables is one of the main challenges of this century. This transition will help decrease our CO2 emissions, create jobs, contribute to a broader revenues distribution, improve energy s ...

Nonlinear Pricing of Shareable Products

Thomas Alois Weber

We consider a durable-goods monopolist who is able to control the collaborative consumption of its goods on an aftermarket by a sharing tariff. Consumers are heterogeneous with respect to their respective need propensities in each period. We show that the ...

Advanced tariffs for grid friendly distributed PV and storage: A case study in Rolle

Christophe Ballif, Lionel Benjamin Bloch, Jordan Holweger

The integration of a large amount of Photovoltaic could be an issue due to the excess of power generation and the ability of the low-voltage grids to extract the energy to the upper level. Appropriate tariff structures could prevent the need for grid reinf ...

The emission benefits of European integration

Vincent Moreau, Luis Costa

Simulating the implications of Brexit on the UK's emissions embodied in trade with a multi-region input-output table exposes the benefits of European integration. Under 2014 trade volumes, technologies and energy mixes, a hard Brexit-reverting to a trade p ...

Comparison of MPC Formulations for Building Control under Commercial Time-of-Use Tariffs

Maher Kayal

Most medium and large commercial buildings in the U.S. are subject to complex electricity tariffs that combine both Time-of-Use (TOU) energy and demand charges. This study analyses the performances of different economic Model Predictive Control (MPC) formu ...

Modeling of fatigue behavior based on interaction between time- and cyclic-dependent mechanical properties

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos

A general constitutive equation was established using the theory of viscoelasticity in order to consider the interaction of the time- and cyclic-dependent mechanical properties of laminated composites. This equation was solved for two specific loading patt ...

Impact of advanced electricity tariff structures on the optimal design, operation and profitability of a grid-connected PV system with energy storage

Christophe Ballif, Lionel Benjamin Bloch, Jordan Holweger

The increasing penetration of residential photovoltaics (PV) comes with numerous challenges for distribution system operators. Technical difficulties arise when an excess of PV energy is injected into the grid, causing voltage rise or overloading of the li ...
