HERON (Holistic Energy Resource Optimization Network) is a project to construct
workflows solving complex resource allocation problems to meet target economic
goals.
It leverages probabalistic analysis tool raven to run constructed workflows. HERON is a plugin for RAVEN.
Instructions for installing RAVEN plugins (including HERON) can be found on RAVEN's website.
See more on the HERON wiki for installation, examples, and documentation.
The following are a selection of technical reports, conference proceedings, and journal articles that may be of interest to users and developers of HERON, loosely in order of work performed.
- A Technical and Economic Assessment of LWR Flexible Operation for Generation and Demand Balancing to Optimize Plant Revenue
- Evaluation of Hybrid FPOG Applications in Regulated and Deregulated Markets Using HERON
- HERON as a Tool for LWR Market Interaction in a Deregulated Market
