The efficient and intelligent management of energy resources is widely recognized as a key strategy for promoting environmental sustainability, equitable resource distribution, and enhanced resource reutilization. In modern energy systems, control and optimization techniques, and advanced algorithms in particular, play a pivotal role. Energy optimization is a critical concern across a broad spectrum of applications, including smart grids and microgrids, renewable energy systems, electric and hybrid vehicles, conventional engines, energy storage solutions, electric motors, and various types of traditional and non-traditional actuators.
From large-scale infrastructure to small-scale components, all systems contribute significantly to the overall energy landscape. Even small actuators and motors, whether electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic, are integral to the vision of intelligent energy management due to their widespread use in energy-to-motion conversion processes.
This Reprint aims to highlight recent advances in intelligent control strategies and optimization techniques focused on the efficient management of energy. The contributions within address systems in which algorithms and control methodologies play crucial roles in improving energy performance and optimization.
