Scope:

The energy sector is undergoing major changes, namely regarding new concepts and principles for economic and environmentally friendly operations and planning, technological upgrades, and new forms for end-users’ behaviour. Electricity is a key driver of modern societies, and consumers expect it to be available at every moment of the day. This expectation is kept even considering increasing demand, environmental restrictions, increasing use of non-dispatchable energy sources, technical issues and many other factors that may negatively impact the sector’s efficiency. This energy transition is requiring the entire sector to adapt itself. New operation and business models are required, as well as new infrastructure and new technological means.

Computational intelligence based approaches are of crucial to address major challenges for highly automated and robust operations in a very dynamic, complex, and competitive environment such as the power and energy sectors, especially in a time of accelerated energy transition.

This special session aims at bringing together different experiences in the application of computational intelligence based approaches to power and energy problems, targeting the contribution of the main international experts in the field, both from academia and industry. Although focused on the application domain of power and energy systems, this special session envisages a broad spectrum of computational intelligence based approaches that address some of the most prominent problems in the field.
