Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue aims to delve into the dynamic realm of autonomous energy systems and investigate the multifaceted aspects of their control and operation. As the global energy landscape undergoes a transformative shift towards sustainability and autonomy, this scope focuses on the intersection of advanced technologies, artificial intelligence, and energy infrastructure.

Our scope encompasses research that addresses the intricate challenges and opportunities associated with the control and operation of autonomous energy systems. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:

Intelligent Control Algorithms: analyzing cutting-edge algorithms that empower autonomous systems to make real-time decisions, optimize energy usage, and adapt to changing conditions.

Integration of renewable sources: exploring strategies for seamlessly integrating renewable energy sources into autonomous systems, ensuring reliability, efficiency, and resilience.

Cybersecurity in energy networks: investigating robust cybersecurity measures to safeguard autonomous energy systems from potential threats and vulnerabilities.

Human–machine interaction: examining the role of human–machine collaboration in the effective control and operation of autonomous energy systems, considering user interfaces, decision support systems, and ethical implications.

Case studies and field applications: presenting real-world applications, success stories, and challenges faced in implementing autonomous energy systems across diverse environments.

This Special Issue aspires to provide a comprehensive platform for researchers, engineers, and policymakers that fosters a deeper understanding of the intricate dynamics surrounding the control and operation of autonomous energy systems in the pursuit of a sustainable future.
