Surrogate Constraints for Synchronized Energy Production/Consumption

We deal here with job scheduling under encapsulated renewable and non-renewable resource constraints, while relying on a case study related to energy production. Such a context requires synchronizing resource production and consumption in order to both minimize production costs and efficiently achieve the jobs. It most often involves distinct players with their own agenda and non-shared information. We adopt the point of view of the job scheduler and short-cut part of the production level with the help of surrogate estimators.
