Enabling Low Carbon Energy Systems and Markets via Emerging Technologies, AI, Economic Mechanism and Policy
In the face of escalating climate
concerns, the imperative for low carbon energy
systems has never been greater. The dynamic
interplay of energy technologies, market dynamics,
and innovative policy frameworks, is increasingly
influential in steering the trajectory of power and
energy systems towards net zero. The urgency to
mitigate carbon emissions has prompted nations
worldwide to set ambitious CO2 reduction goals.
Achieving these goals necessitates a profound
transformation across the whole value chain of the
energy sector, from generation, transmission, and
distribution to consumption.
This special session invites researchers and and
industry practitioners to engage in a vital
discourse on the latest research breakthroughs and
forward-looking trends in emerging technologies, AI,
economic mechanisms and policies for zet zero energy
systems and markets. We seek contributions that
delve into innovative ICT technologies (such as 5G,
blockchain, and data analysis), the role of
artificial intelligence in net zero energy systems,
economic mechanisms that incentivize investments and
operations of low carbon energy resources, and the
policy shifts essential for achieving net-zero
targets.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• AI and machine
learning models for energy consumption prediction
and optimization;
• AI and machine learning models for enhancing the
reliability and resilience of power systems;
• Reinforcement learning and deep learning for
operating energy systems, microgrids, and virtual
power plants with distributed energy resources;
• Integration strategies for distributed energy
resources, such as solar PV, electric vehicles,
batteries, and demand response, into existing power
grids;
• Blockchain and other digital technologies for
transparent and efficient P2P energy trading;
• Data analysis for energy consumption behaviours,
anomaly detection, battery health diagnosis and grid
state estimation;
• Cross-sectoral approaches to balancing energy
supply, distribution, and demand for
decarbonization;
• Emerging technologies, AI, economic mechanisms for
multi-energy systems;
• Economic models that support the adoption and
operation of clean energy resources;
• Policy analysis and frameworks that align with
global carbon reduction commitments;
• Stakeholder analysis and engagement strategies in
transitioning towards sustainable energy paradigms.
The special session aims to catalyse dialogue,
exchange of ideas, and collaborative efforts that
can propel the energy system and market towards a
green and resilient future. We welcome full papers,
case studies, and review articles that highlight the
transformative potential of emerging technologies,
advanced AI, economic mechanisms, and policy
innovations in low carbon energy systems and
markets.
