Description de l'unité
In the context of energy transition, multi-vector energy systems and networks (smart grids, heat and cold networks, industrial production systems) must balance the energy sources and demands in function of time. Modeling and simulation play a crucial role in the process of sizing and controlling these systems and their multiple components [1, 2].
The energy systems models are computationally intensive, and limit the capability to analyze the systems e.g. through sensitivity analysis. In multi-vector energy systems modeling as in many other domains, surrogate models help reduce the models computation time [3, 4]. However, the surrogate models generate bias; thus they deteriorate the validity of results.

Uncertainty Quantification and Machine Learning in multi-vector energy systems. H/F
Sujet de stage
In the frame of the impact analysis of using surrogate models for simulation and optimization of energy systems, your project will focus on quantification of uncertainty in surrogate models, including neural networks, with characteristics adapted to time series processing. In particular, you may study the use of Bayesian neural networks to process time series.

Description de l'offre
In a team composed of about twenty experts (energy systems modeling, operations research, machine learning, programming), you will work in the frame of a project on modeling and optimization of energy networks common to several CEA divisions.
Your tasks:
· Conduct a bibliographic review focused on the types of surrogate models adapted to the processing of time series in the frame of energy systems analysis, and the associated uncertainty quantification methods.
· Conceive and run a proof of concept study for surrogate models uncertainty quantification in energy systems analysis on a test case.
· Publish the results in scientific journals and contribute to cooperation with French and International academics.
The laboratory is located in Le Bourget du Lac and in Grenoble. Travels to Saclay (Paris area) are expected. The position is based in Le Bourget du Lac.
