This timely Research Handbook explores the state of the art in energy management amidst a period of fundamental change in the field, due to the ongoing sustainable energy transition, increasing digitalization and the rising importance of resilience. It examines methodological developments and applications, addressing these growing challenges along the entire value chain and across different energy sectors.Expert authors discuss four societal mega trends: decarbonization, decentralization, digitalization and democratization, and their impact on energy management, illustrating recent developments which support the sector. Combining academic and applied approaches, they examine energy management issues within and across different spheres, such as residential and industrial energy management and the cross-sectoral example of power-to-gas. This Research Handbook provides a novel conceptual structure for the regulatory and ethical aspects of modern energy management, forming a framework for realizing the extent of decarbonization potentials in different energy end-use sectors.Students and scholars of energy economics and environmental governance, regulation and management will greatly benefit from this Research Handbook. It is also a crucial resource for academics who are studying environmental politics and policy, geopolitics and political geography, as well as practitioners working in modern energy management.

The papers presented in this open access book address diverse challenges in decarbonizing energy systems, ranging from operational to investment planning problems, from market economics to technical and environmental considerations, from distribution grids to transmission grids, and from theoretical considerations to data provision concerns and applied case studies. While most papers have a clear methodological focus, they address policy-relevant questions at the same time. The target audience therefore includes academics and experts in industry as well as policy makers, who are interested in state-of-the-art quantitative modelling of policy relevant problems in energy systems. The 2nd International Symposium on Energy System Optimization (ISESO 2018) was held at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) under the symposium theme “Bridging the Gap Between Mathematical Modelling and Policy Support” on October 10th and 11th 2018. ISESO 2018 was organized by the KIT,the Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies (HITS), the Heidelberg University, the German Aerospace Center and the University of Stuttgart.
