contents Optimizing a building's energy supply design is a task with multiple competing criteria, where not only monetary but also, for example, an environmental objective shall be taken into account. Moreover, when deciding which storages and heating and cooling units to purchase (here-and-now-decisions), there is uncertainty about future developments of prices for energy, e.g. electricity and gas. This can be accounted for later by operating the units accordingly (wait-and-see-decisions), once the uncertainty revealed itself. Therefore, the problem can be modeled as an adjustable robust optimization problem. We combine adjustable robustness and multicriteria optimization for the case of building energy supply design and solve the resulting problem using a column and constraint generation algorithm in combination with an $\varepsilon$-constraint approach. In the multicriteria adjustable robust problem, we simultaneously minimize worst-case cost regret and carbon emissions. We take into account future price uncertainties and consider the results in the light of information gap decision theory to find a trade-off between security against price fluctuations and over-conservatism. We present the model, a solution strategy and discuss different application scenarios for a case study building.

Optimizing a building's energy supply design is a task with multiple competing criteria, where not only monetary but also, for example, an environmental objective shall be taken into account. Moreover, when deciding which storages and heating and cooling units to purchase (here-and-now-decisions), there is uncertainty about future developments of prices for energy, e.g. electricity and gas.

Therefore, the problem can be modeled as an adjustable robust optimization problem. We combine adjustable robustness and multicriteria optimization for the case of building energy supply design and solve the resulting problem using a column and constraint generation algorithm in combination with an $\varepsilon$-constraint approach. In the multicriteria adjustable robust problem, we simultaneously minimize worst-case cost regret and carbon emissions.
