Mixed interger linear programming problem written in Python using the Pyomo framework and GLPK solver. The problem examines the optimal demand schedule of a heat pump and electric vehicle when they are subject to a time-of-use tariff, distribution network operator flexibility market and the balancing mechanism. The heat pumps and electric vehicles actions are limited by the needs of the device owner, modelled as constraints.
