Scientists from the West Ukrainian National University joined an international consortium that won a grant competition from the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) with the research project “Data-Driven Strategies for Intelligent Resilient Renewable Energy Systems (IRRES) Under Wartime Conditions”. This project is interdisciplinary in nature and is coordinated by the Research Institute for Intelligent Computer Systems.
Representatives of the Department of Information and Computing Systems and Management (Prof. Anatoliy Sachenko), the Department of Computer Engineering (Assoc. Prof. Lesia Dubchak) and the Department of Ecology and Health (Assoc. Prof. Leonid Bytsyura) are involved in the project.
The project is being implemented in close cooperation with the German Fachhochschule Dortmund and Zaporizhia Polytechnic National University with the aim of developing intelligent strategies for managing university power systems in an isolated mode, which is critically important for ensuring the viability of educational institutions in conditions of military operations and the destruction of centralized infrastructure. The research focuses on the use of artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic and machine learning methods to predict energy generation, detect damage after attacks and create algorithms for rapid self-healing of the network.
In addition to the scientific component, the initiative provides for the technical upgrade of the WUNU base, which will contribute to the implementation of the Eco-University strategy and strengthen the energy sustainability of the campus.
