Biography:
In June 2020, Louise Sadoine graduated with a master degree in Mathematical Sciences from University of Mons (UMONS), Belgium. Since February 2021, she had started her PhD Thesis which is a collaboration between Effective Mathematics Service, Mathematics Department (UMONS) and the Power Systems & Markets Research Group, Department of Electrical Power Engineering (UMONS).
His research interests include Optimization and Game Theory for Energy Systems, Prospect Theory and the modeling of Renewables Energy Communities low voltage.


Renewable Energy Communities (RECs) consist in an emerging decentralized market mechanism promoted by the European Commission which allows local electricity exchanges between end-users, by passing the traditional wholesale/retail market structure. In that configuration, local consumers and prosumers (i.e. consumers who also produce electricity) gather in communities and can either cooperate or compete towards a (possibly common) objective, which can be economical, environmental or social. The optimal allocation of energy in RECs is however a complex task, which involves mixed integer programming, optimization under uncertainty, relaxations techniques and multi-agent optimization. Furthermore, the community members may exhibit differences in terms of their energy preferences. The aim of this thesis is to include members' subjective preferences in the management of REC consumption.
