IATEM Workshop

----------------



Traditional power systems were primarily designed to provide energy under efficient

and secure conditions. However, the global increase on electricity demand and the

corresponding need to invest in modern power systems, gives added urgency to several

other major goals, including sustainability, reliability, and mainly the achievement

of reduced health and environmental impact.



Around the world, power markets are also being reconsidered in an effort to meet a

broader mix of objectives: encouraging non-fossil sources of energy, accelerating private

investment, encouraging competition and efficiency, and increasing flexibility in system

operation, among others.

Accordingly, the main purpose of this 3rd international workshop, as an event of
DEXA 2014, is to provide a high-profile, internationally respected discussion
forum on the most recent and innovative scientific research in the areas of power
systems and energy markets that can benefit most from Artificial Intelligence.
