The objective of the DACH+ conference series on Energy
Informatics is to promote research, development, and
implementation of information and communication technologies in
the energy domain and to foster the exchange between academia,
industry, and service providers in the German-Austrian-Swiss
region and its neighbouring countries (DACH+).
We seek high-quality original contributions addressing the
design, adoption, operation and management of smart energy
systems, the integration of intermittent renewable generation
and energy efficiency gains through ICT, market approaches and
mechanisms for ICT-enabled energy systems, and research on
associated (decentralised) data-driven decisions. We welcome
theoretical contributions as well as publications addressing
system design, implementation, and experimentation. The list of
topics of interest to the conference includes, but is not
limited to:
- ICT for future energy systems, sector coupling and the integration of intermittent renewable generation
- Information and decision support systems for future energy markets and mechanisms
- Energy system modelling and (open) energy system data
- Protocols and architectures for IT systems in the energy sector
- Data analytics and machine learning for smart energy systems and decentralised decision making, as well as platforms for data analysis
- Open data and software for energy research
- Management of distributed generation and demand side management
- ICT for (multi-) energy networks and micro-grids
- Energy-efficient mobility, charging management for electric vehicles, energy-aware traffic control, and smart grid integration of mobile storage
- Smart buildings, digital metering, occupant comfort, and user interaction
- Adoption of ICT in the energy sector
- Cross-cutting issues including cyber security and privacy protection, interoperability, verification of networked smart grid systems
