Adaptive pricing for optimal resource allocation in industrial production sites

摘要: Abstract In large integrated production sites, an optimal allocation of the shared resources among different possibly competing plants is key to a resource and energy efficient operation overall site. Typically, site can be regarded as physically coupled system systems (SoS), since it comprises many linked with certain degree autonomy in respect individual operating conditions where tend pursue their own economic goals interests. order improve site, centralized optimization for within favored. However, solution cannot always realized due various technical or managerial reasons. One reasons limited amount information about subsystems that central management access, because want preserve high level confidentiality. this contribution, we present application price-based coordination (subgradient-based price updates Alternating Direction Method Multipliers, ADMM) case study petrochemical INEOS Koln. We discuss requirements industrial applicability sharing information. simulation study, show how uses incentives steer productions towards site-optimal thus able react changing such capacity changes.
