“We have now conducted many projects using Julia including hydrothermal dispatch coordination with risk averse measures, optimal power flow, renewable generation simulation, and robust portfolio management. Most of the students working in the lab use Julia in their thesis. Additionally, optimization, energy economics and finance classes at the graduate and …

"Julia has the best of both worlds. When we are prototyping, we can rapidly create simple simulations or algorithms to perform general tests, taking advantage of the ease usually available in interpreted languages. After this phase, when algorithms are then used in simulators or multidisciplinary design optimization (MDO) tools, we …
