Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid evolution of energy systems, driven by technological advancements and increasing environmental concerns, demands innovative approaches to manage and optimize these systems sustainably. Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) have emerged as powerful tools, revolutionizing how energy systems are analyzed, optimized, and managed. This Special Issue, titled "Future Directions in Energy Transition and Sustainable Management", aims to explore the intersection of AI/ML applications, optimization strategies, and environmental mitigation methods within interconnected grid frameworks. This research area is critical for achieving sustainable energy goals, reducing environmental impact, and enhancing the efficiency and reliability of power systems.
The primary aim of this Special Issue is to gather cutting-edge research and comprehensive reviews that address the challenges and opportunities in energy transition and sustainable management. By focusing on AI and ML applications, optimization techniques, and environmental strategies, this issue seeks to contribute to the body of knowledge that supports the development of resilient and sustainable energy systems. Its scope aligns with the journal's mission to advance scientific understanding and practical solutions in the field of energy systems and sustainability.
This Special Issue invites original research articles and review papers that delve into, but are not limited to, the following themes:
- The development of AI/ML algorithms for energy forecasting, load prediction, and demand-side management;
- The use of AI/ML in renewable energy integration and smart grid technologies;
- Case studies demonstrating AI/ML applications in enhancing energy system reliability and efficiency;
- Novel optimization algorithms for energy distribution, storage, and generation;
- Techniques for optimizing energy consumption in industrial, commercial, and residential sectors;
- Advanced methods for power system stability, reliability, and resilience analysis;
- Strategies for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and other pollutants in power generation and distribution;
- The implementation of sustainable practices in grid management to minimize environmental impact;
- Evaluations of policies and regulatory frameworks supporting environmental sustainability in energy systems.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
