In Control of Cost of Energy


That's me off for a few days to Ireland. The Maynooth University Wave Energy Workshop is being held on 20 Jan. The workshop webpage includes a remote sign-in link for anyone who isn't able to attend in person. As Maynooth specialises in control, we can expect that to be the focus of many of the talks. I suspect my poster will be the least mathematical by far! Nevertheless, this is a perfect opportunity for me to evangelise my latest pet topic, that of broadening the function of control. Rather than limiting control to a means of improving power capture, we can consider it a powerful tool for reducing cost of energy.
