Inspired by the topical network “Energy and Resources” of the Deutsche Akademie der Technikwissenschaften (acatech), the participants of the KoMSO members’ meeting in September 2012 decided to hold a Challenge Workshop on mathematical modeling and optimization of the energy transformation. During a discussion about this topic with Prof. Dr. Eberhard Umbach, Dr.-Ing. Karl-Friedrich Ziegahn and further members of the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) the suggestion was made to address this problem – in a first step – in the area of energy grids. The workshop served as a first approach between work groups from the power industry as well as representatives of applied mathematics to further promote the creation of a network in the area of mathematic modeling and optimization.
