Abstract

The escalating trends in energy consumption and the associated emissions of pollutants in the past century have led to energy depletion and environmental pollution. Achieving comprehensive sustainability requires the optimization of energy efficiency and the implementation of efficient energy management strategies. Artificial intelligence (AI), a prominent machine learning paradigm, has gained significant traction in control applications and found extensive utility in various energy-related domains. The utilization of AI techniques for addressing energy-related challenges is favored due to their aptitude for handling complex and nonlinear data structures. Based on the preliminary inquiries, it has been observed that predictive analytics, prominently driven by artificial neural network (ANN) algorithms, assumes a crucial position in energy management across various sectors. This paper presents a comprehensive bibliometric analysis to gain deeper insights into the progression of AI in energy research from 2003 to 2023. AI models can be used to accurately predict energy consumption, load profiles, and resource planning, ensuring consistent performance and efficient resource utilization. This review article summarizes the existing literature on the implementation of AI in the development of energy management systems. Additionally, it explores the challenges and potential areas of research in applying ANN to energy system management. The study demonstrates that ANN can effectively address integration issues between energy and power systems, such as solar and wind forecasting, power system frequency analysis and control, and transient stability assessment. Based on the comprehensive state-of-the-art study, it can be inferred that the implementation of AI has consistently led to energy reductions exceeding 25%. Furthermore, this article discusses future research directions in this field.

Abstract

There is a looming global crisis owing to the increase in greenhouse gases and the escalating fossil fuel process.  The issue is further compounded by the ongoing conflicts in different places in the world. Hence, there is an urgent need for a bouquet of alternative fuels suitable to power the incumbent internal combustion engine. Among various options available Dimethyl Ether (DME) is a friendly environment fuel, easy to liquefy, and suitable for use in diesel engines, while Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is another potential alternative fuel suitable for internal combustion engines. The present study is an endeavor to investigate the characteristics of a diesel engine powered with DME-diesel blends as pilot fuel while LPG was used as the main fuel.  During engine testing, different blends of diesel-DME were used containing 0%, 25%, 50%, and 75% DME. The AVL Boost software was employed for modeling the engine performance and tailpipe emission. The test fuel combination was successful in running the engine sans any abnormality in sound or performance. The results showed carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbon (HC) emissions were reduced using the test fuel combination while there was a marginal increase in the oxides of nitrogen (NOx) levels. In general, the combination of DME and LPG could be considered as a potential and promising solution to reducing pollutant emissions.

Abstract

This review article examines the revolutionary possibilities of machine learning (ML) and intelligent algorithms for enabling renewable energy, with an emphasis on the energy domains of solar, wind, biofuel, and biomass. Critical problems such as data variability, system inefficiencies, and predictive maintenance are addressed by the integration of ML in renewable energy systems. Machine learning improves solar irradiance prediction accuracy and maximizes photovoltaic system performance in the solar energy sector. ML algorithms help to generate electricity more reliably by enhancing wind speed forecasts and wind turbine efficiency. ML improves the efficiency of biofuel production by optimizing feedstock selection, process parameters, and yield forecasts. Similarly, ML models in biomass energy provide effective thermal conversion procedures and real-time process management, guaranteeing increased energy production and operational stability. Even with the enormous advantages, problems such as data quality, interpretability of the models, computing requirements, and integration with current systems still remain. Resolving these issues calls for interdisciplinary cooperation, developments in computer technology, and encouraging legislative frameworks. This study emphasizes the vital role of ML in promoting sustainable and efficient renewable energy systems by giving a thorough review of present ML applications in renewable energy, highlighting continuing problems, and outlining future prospects

Abstract

As a sustainable replacement for fossil fuels, biodiesel is a game-changer in the energy sector. There is no strategy to minimize biodiesel's significance as a sustainable, clean fuel source in light of the increasing climate change and environmental sustainability concerns. Nevertheless, conventional biodiesel production methods often run into problems like inadequate conversion efficiency and inappropriate fuel properties, which impede their broad adoption. The revolutionary potential of nanotechnology to circumvent these limitations and revolutionize biodiesel consumption and production is explored in this review paper. There are new possibilities for improving biodiesel output and engine efficiency, thanks to nanotechnology, which can alter matter at the atomic and molecular levels. Using nano-catalysts, nano-emulsification processes, and nano-encapsulation procedures, researchers have made significant advances in improving biodiesel qualities such as stability, combustion efficiency, and viscosity. Through a comprehensive analysis of current literature and research data, this article elucidates the crucial role of nanotechnology in advancing biodiesel technology. By shedding light on the most current advancements, challenges, and potential future outcomes in nano-based biodiesel manufacturing and consumption, this review hopes to add to the growing corpus of knowledge in the field and inspire additional innovation. In conclusion, there is great hope for a sustainable energy future, increased economic growth, and reduced environmental impacts through the application of nanotechnology.
