Special Issue Introduction
Energy is of most importance for today’s societies, being crucial for economic development and for human comfort and quality of life. The increase of energy efficiency and adequate energy management have been addressed for many years, aiming at reducing energy costs. With current increased awareness of the impact of the energy sector on climate change, new energy management approaches are needed to tackle the sustainability challenges.
As distributed energy resources are gaining increasing importance, distributed energy management is being implemented, with different sensors, smart devices, and computational processing being required at the local level. Therefore, the additional energy required for this purpose should be evaluated, and adequate approaches should be put in place to ensure that energy management is made according to the aimed sustainability and green energy goals.
This special issue welcomes papers describing new methods and models used to address the gap in the described field, as well as their application to real and realistic use cases.
Topics of interest include but are not limited to:
● Contextual energy management
● Distributed computing
● Distributed energy resources
● Energy management systems
● Explainable artificial intelligence
● Flexible operation of algorithms computation
● Green computing
● IoT Data analytics
● Local electricity markets
● Predictive and advanced machine learning models
● Real-life case studies
● Renewable energy sources
● Smart energy grid
