Microgrid energy dispatcher for a village

NRG-03 · Original hackathon problem statement from Arventiq Labs

The problem

Villages with solar and batteries struggle to decide when to charge, discharge or shed load.

What to build

Create a scheduler that forecasts generation and demand and dispatches batteries to minimise outages and diesel use.

Success looks like

Fewer simulated outage hours than a simple rule baseline over a month of synthetic weather and load.

Suggested technologies

  • Optimisation
  • Forecasting
  • Battery models
  • Simulation
  • Edge controllers
