LBW implements network control optimizer for Open Grid Europe GmbH

LBW implements an optimization core for the technical network control at Open Grid Europe, one of the largest German gas network operators (www.open-grid-europe.com). The optimization core is based on research work of the research campus MODAL (http://forschungscampus-modal.de/). LBW uses its expertise to bring mathematical optimization to industrial application in close collaboration with the GasLab of the research campus MODAL (https://www.zib.de/projects/modal-gaslab). The optimization core will be part of the production system for the control of 12,000 km gas transport network and the transport of 2/3 of the German natural gas demand.
