Summary
The global energy sector is undergoing a profound transformation driven by the rapid integration of renewable energy resources, smart grid technologies, distributed energy systems, and digitalization. At the same time, increasing energy demand, climate change concerns, and the need for sustainable energy management require innovative solutions that improve efficiency, reliability, resilience, and operational performance.
Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and data-driven analytics have emerged as powerful tools for addressing these challenges. These technologies enable advanced forecasting, predictive maintenance, fault diagnosis, energy optimization, condition monitoring, asset management, and intelligent decision-making across modern energy infrastructures.
This Special Issue aims to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, and industry practitioners to present cutting-edge developments, methodologies, and applications of AI-driven technologies in energy systems. Contributions focusing on both theoretical advances and practical implementations are highly encouraged.
Suggested themes include, but are not limited to:
· Artificial intelligence for smart grids
· Machine learning in renewable energy systems
