DTU CEE Summer School brings together academics and industry professionals from around the world, in an intensive 5-day course. The summer school started as an initiative of the Energy Analytics & Markets (ELMA) group of Center for Electric Power and Energy (CEE), DTU Elektro in 2016.
Sponsored by Mosek ApS, EES-UETP, and the CITIES project, the last three summer schools 2016-2019 have been widely successful. Attracting about 55 attendees each year and with distinguished invited lecturers from the US and Europe, they fully covered the attendees’ expectations. Summer school 2018 received a very positive feedback by all participants. 100% of the participants would recommend DTU CEE summer school to others.
Summer School 2021:
No summer school planned yet due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
Summer School 2020:
120 applicants from all over the world would like to attend the summer school and a great list of speakers was arranged (https://energy-markets-school.dk/speakers/). Sadly, the summer school was cancelled due to the COVID-19 pandemic virus. Read more at: https://energy-markets-school.dk

Summer School 2018
Lyngby Campus:
Modern Optimization in Energy (June 24-29, 2018)
The DTU CEE Summer School 2018 aimed to give participants practical experience with the latest developments in optimization for energy systems. Participants of the course :
- Gained practical experience with optimization techniques applied to energy systems
- Saw relevant examples of these techniques used in cutting-edge research
- Sharpened their peer review and feedback skills by reviewing other participants’ work
The summer school focused in particular on optimal power flow, distributionally robust optimization, convex relaxations, data-driven methods, integrated energy systems and consumer-centric electricity markets.

Risø Campus:
Quantifying the quality of Smart Energy Solutions via Testing (August 27-31, 2018)
During the last week of August DTU CEE held a summer school for PhD students with participants from Turkey, Denmark, Germany and Austria.
The topic of the summer school was “Quantifying the quality of Smart Energy Solutions via Testing”. Participants learned about Simulation and Hardware Testing, Statistical Design of Experiments, and Industrial testing & certification. During the week, students implemented their own test design and carried out experiments in a Co-simulation environment, a distributed systems testbed (SIMLAB), and a full-scale Smart Grid Laboratory (SYSLAB of PowerLabDK).
The summer school was organized in context of the ERIGrid (www.erigrid.eu) on interconnecting smart grid research infrastructures.
Summer School 2017
Modern Challenges in Power System Operation and Electricity Markets - An Optimization Perspective (June 12th - 16th, 2017)
With 56 participants (from universities and enterprises, and from all over the world) and 10 world-renowned lecturers, this event was even larger than the previously organized school. The summer school focused on advanced optimization techniques, e.g. convex relaxation and stochastic optimization, as well as game theory and decision making, and their application to the electricity markets. Students received tutorials on the application and interpretation of these techniques, and used their skills to complete group projects. Finally, students were asked to disseminate their findings to other students through presentations and peer review. The overall evaluation from 56 participants was as follows: excellent: 67.9%, good: 32.1%, fair: 0%, poor: 0%.

Summer School 2016
Uncertainty in Electricity Markets and System Operation (July 4 to July 8, 2016)
With 48 participants (from universities and enterprises, and from all over the world) and 10 world-renowned lecturers, this event was one of the largest summer school courses in EES-UETP history. The summer school focused on advanced optimization techniques, e.g., stochastic, interval and robust optimization, and their applications to energy systems. Students received tutorials on the application and interpretation of these techniques, and used their skills to complete group projects. Finally, students were asked to disseminate their findings to other students through presentations and peer review. The overall evaluation from 48 participants was as follows: excellent: 53.2%, good: 42.5%, fair: 4.3%, poor: 0%.
