Abstract This paper presents a novel machine learning (ML) enhanced energy management framework for residential microgrids. It dynamically integrates solar photovoltaics (PV), wind turbines, lithium-ion battery energy storage systems (BESS), and bidirectional electric vehicle (EV) charging. The proposed architecture addresses the limitations of traditional rule-based controls by incorporating ConvLSTM for real-time forecasting, a Twin Delayed Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (TD3) reinforcement learning agent for optimal BESS scheduling, and federated learning for EV charging prediction—ensuring both privacy and efficiency. Simulated in a high-fidelity MATLAB/Simulink environment, the system achieves 98.7% solar/wind forecast accuracy and 98.2% Maximum Power Point… More >

Abstract Internet of things networks often suffer from early node failures and short lifespan due to energy limits. Traditional routing methods are not enough. This work proposes a new hybrid algorithm called ACOGA. It combines Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) and the Greedy Algorithm (GA). ACO finds smart paths while Greedy makes quick decisions. This improves energy use and performance. ACOGA outperforms Hybrid Energy-Efficient (HEE) and Adaptive Lossless Data Compression (ALDC) algorithms. After 500 rounds, only 5% of ACOGA’s nodes are dead, compared to 15% for HEE and 20% for ALDC. The network using ACOGA runs for More >

Abstract The rapid advancements in distributed generation technologies, the widespread adoption of distributed energy resources, and the integration of 5G technology have spurred sharing economy businesses within the electricity sector. Revolutionary technologies such as blockchain, 5G connectivity, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices have facilitated peer-to-peer distribution and real-time response to fluctuations in supply and demand. Nevertheless, sharing electricity within a smart community presents numerous challenges, including intricate design considerations, equitable allocation, and accurate forecasting due to the lack of well-organized temporal parameters. To address these challenges, this proposed system is focused on sharing extra electricity… More >

Abstract With the increasing integration of emerging source-load types such as distributed photovoltaics, electric vehicles, and energy storage into distribution networks, the operational characteristics of these networks have evolved from traditional single-load centers to complex multi-source, multi-load systems. This transition not only increases the difficulty of effectively classifying distribution networks due to their heightened complexity but also renders traditional energy management approaches—primarily focused on economic objectives—insufficient to meet the growing demands for flexible scheduling and dynamic response. To address these challenges, this paper proposes an adaptive multi-objective energy management strategy that accounts for the distinct operational… More >

Abstract This article focuses on the challenges of modeling energy supply systems for buildings, encompassing both methods and tools for simulating thermal regimes and engineering systems within buildings. Enhancing the comfort of living or working in buildings often necessitates increased consumption of energy and material, such as for thermal upgrades, which consequently incurs additional economic costs. It is crucial to acknowledge that such improvements do not always lead to a decrease in total pollutant emissions, considering emissions across all stages of production and usage of energy and materials aimed at boosting energy efficiency and comfort in… More > Graphic Abstract
