Energy Saving and Energy Efficiency Technologies

Dear Colleagues,

There have been ongoing discussions regarding transfer from using renewables instead of fossil fuels. Still, the fastest way to reduce GHG emissions is to reduce the use of energy. There are a number of technologies that can be used to achieve this. We have system optimizations to avoid unnecessary losses due to system inefficiencies as well as smart technologies such as AI, AR, ML, etc. to develop diagnostics, model-predictive control, and similar to reduce waste and scrapping due to the production of poor-quality products. This will save energy directly, but also indirectly as scrapping increases the energy burden for the final product. System optimization is for both industrial processes and societal systems including offices, residential buildings, and everything related to this, such as power supply, heat supply, and transportation.

We invite you to present your ideas and proposals on this topic as a scientific paper or pass this invitation on to someone in your network who would be interested in submitting a paper.
