Aim and Scope

Recent years have witnessed the rapid growth of Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques, with applications ranging from computer vision, natural language processing, recommendations, to autonomous driving, decision making, and problem solving.  AI techniques have dramatically changed modern industrial systems such as energy systems and transportation systems. For smart energy systems, AI technology provides intelligent and effective tools for electricity generation, transmission, delivery, consumption, marketing management, and emergency response. For example, AI has been applied to produce ultra-accurate forecasts making it feasible to integrate demand side management and much more renewable energy into the power grids. Various machine learning-based security assessment tools have been designed for power grids to detect faults and attacks. Additionally, computer vision techniques have been exploited for remote power monitoring and control. Therefore, although AI is in its early stages of implementation, it is poised to revolutionize the way we produce, transmit, and consume energy.

The goal of this workshop is to solicit high-quality research articles proposing the state-of-the-art AI-based solutions to improve the stability, efficiency, security and resilience of the energy systems. Prospective authors are invited to submit manuscripts for possible publications in this special topic. Original research as well as high-quality review articles are all welcome.
