Multi-agent systems and their role in future energy grids
This report documents the program and the outcomes of Dagstuhl Seminar 14181 “Multi-agent
systems and their role in future energy grids”. A number of recent events (e. g. Fukushima,
Japan, and the largest blackout in history, India) have once again increased global attention on
climate change and resource depletion. The evaluation of the feasibility of current approaches for
future energy generation, distribution, transportation, and consumption has become an important
requirement for most countries. There is a general consensus on the need for a fundamental
transformation of future energy grids. The development of an information and communication
technology (ICT) support infrastructure was identified as the key challenge in the design of an
end-to-end smart grid. A multiagent system, with agents located at th
