Challenge

Rising energy prices and complex load profiles made it increasingly difficult for companies to keep procurement costs under control. The goal was to develop a data-driven solution to identify savings potential and optimize electricity purchasing decisions.

Solution

I built a mathematical optimization model using Python, Pyomo, and Gurobi, designed to minimize electricity procurement costs. The model incorporated real-world cost structures and load profiles, enabling efficient decision-making based on quantitative analysis.

Impact

The solution was successfully applied in a real business context, leading to measurable cost savings and more efficient energy procurement strategies.
