Abstract
Nowadays, the existence and ease of access to massive amounts of data encourage proposing data-driven solutions. As optimization has always been based on the interchange between models and data, high-level optimization tasks such as planning and scheduling will extremely benefit from information mined from massive data sets. The development of big data tools (i.e., machine learning) has proven superiority over traditional data tools in dealing with vast amounts of data, data with undefined structure and capturing important information from data in a very efficient and computationally tractable manner. Therefore, in this work, big data tools are implemented to address the challenges associated with planning models of energy infrastructure that incorporate renewable resources and chemical engineering processes, namely, uncertainty handling, multiscale modelling, and unit process equation complexity.
