Introduction
The role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the energy sector is critical for addressing key challenges and unlocking new opportunities. AI employs advanced computational algorithms to enhance various facets of energy production, distribution, consumption, and management. Utilizing tools such as machine learning, neural networks, and optimization techniques, AI analyzes extensive datasets from energy systems—like power plants, smart grids, and renewable energy sources—to facilitate informed decision-making and boost operational efficiency.
Incorporating AI enhances the reliability and stability of energy systems while reducing costs and environmental impact. By leveraging AI, energy companies can navigate evolving market dynamics and foster a more sustainable and resilient energy future.
Topics of Interest
This special issue aims to highlight the latest advancements in applying various AI techniques for the control and optimization of smart grids that utilize renewable energy sources. Topics include, but are not limited to:
– AI-based grid management systems
– Optimization of energy distribution networks to adjust to demand changes and integrate diverse energy sources
– AI applications to facilitate the integration of renewable sources, such as solar and wind energy, through weather condition predictions
– Innovations in energy efficiency and demand management driven by AI
– AI-based energy management systems
– Data-driven decision-making processes using real-time analysis of large datasets from sensors and meters
– AI’s role in improving asset management and predictive maintenance for energy infrastructure
Manuscript Submission Information
