Project characteristic |
|
 |
 |
The main aim of the proposed project is development of mathematical statistical models
for estimation of natural gas consumption for individual consumers whose consumption is
not measured on a daily or monthly basis. A further task is modelling and forecasting
natural gas consumption for different segments of the gas market and for different regions.
The proposed mathematical models and methods will be tested using the gas consumption
measurements of selected consumers. These data will be provided by gas distribution
companies in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.
