Stian Backe (Department of Informatics): Planning installation of offshore wind farms

Stian Backe held a presentation for Bergen Energy Lab on the 23rd of May 2017. He is about to graduate from the Energy Master at the University of Bergen specializing in energy analysis and optimization.

Stian gave an overview of his Master’s Thesis project about planning vessel logistics to support decisions on how to install offshore wind farms. By applying theory of mixed integer linear programming, Stian presented two models that he has developed, tested and analysed to minimize installation costs.
