Abstract

The roll-out of new infrastructural networks in space-constrained areas requires the careful consideration of limited paths. This design task is aggravated if the number and/or location of connectors is unknown. The novel combination of graph theory and concepts of exploratory modelling in this contribution allow for an analysis of most likely paths that maximise the value for the planners. We apply this approach to two proposed energy networks in the Netherlands: a biogas network of farmers in the province of Overijssel and an LNG pipeline connecting industries in the Port of Rotterdam. The examples demonstrate the ease of use and simplicity of this approach that transparently deals with unknowns.
