Abstract

In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining input data including a plurality of parameters related to an energy system design; reducing the input data to a subset of the input data; in a first stage: feeding the subset of input data into a reduced version of a model for estimating an energy system configuration; estimating, using the reduced version of the model, a first energy system configuration and a lower bound solution for the first energy system configuration based on the subset of input data; and in a second stage following the first stage: feeding the input data and the lower bound solution into a full version of the model; and estimating, using the full version of the model, a second energy system configuration based on the input data and the lower bound solution.
