Development of a Decision Support Methodology for the Design of Sustainable Strategies for Energy Resource Allocation

Objetivo

The rapid population growth and the continuous expanding of public sectors such as residential, industrial, agricultural, and transportation, have increased the energy demand worldwide, especially the energy derived primarily from imported fossil fuels. However, fossil fuels are a finite energy source and their scarcity in the future will cause their market price to keep increasing in a rate similar to that witnessed during the past year. Not only the cost of energy is a significant part of any country’s budget, but fossil fuels have also been linked to significant environmental and public health problems. The recent trend, of the developed world, towards sustainable development has imparted renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and biomass-derived energy a more significant role in the energy policy of a country. While there is an agreement among scientists over the need for sustainable development, different techniques are being used worldwide to achieve the optimal management and allocation policy for energy resources. Such techniques include life-cycle and embodied energy analyses, energy analysis, as well as mathematical programming and optimization, each of which has certain strengths and limitations.
In this project, we seek to develop a mathematical framework that will be used to better assist decision-makers devise strategies for the optimal allocation of energy resources to the various sectors of a country’s economy. The framework will couple the concepts of life-cycle and energy analyses with mathematical optimization procedures in a way that economics, environmental impact, sustainability, and public health issues will be integrated in a decision support procedure. This framework could be used by different stakeholders to generate quantifiable scenarios that will serve as starting points in discussions and in formulating energy policies for a country. The framework will be demonstrated through the country case-study of Cyprus.
