Abstract
The advancement of technology has led to the development of smart energy systems, integrating traditional and innovative energy solutions with technologies such as IoT and AI. These systems enhance sustainability by diversifying energy sources and enabling sector coupling. To ensure their optimal functionality, precise and comprehensive energy modeling tools are crucial. This paper provides a thorough review of energy modeling tools, focusing on their suitability for future smart energy systems. From the reviewed tools, efficient options are selected based on the requirements of smart energy systems. These systems aim to improve efficiency, resilience, and sustainability while reducing overall energy costs, necessitating innovative modeling solutions. Energy modeling tools play a crucial role in modeling complex energy frameworks, providing insights for informed decision-making. They optimize energy consumption, predict renewable energy variability, facilitate load balancing, and refine resource allocation strategies. However, the evolution of smart energy systems introduces new modeling challenges, requiring the adaptation and updating of the modeling tools. This study identifies the modeling requirements of future smart energy systems and matches them with the capabilities of present tools through a comprehensive comparative analysis.
期刊介绍:
The mission of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is to disseminate the most compelling and pertinent critical insights in renewable and sustainable energy, fostering collaboration among the research community, private sector, and policy and decision makers. The journal aims to exchange challenges, solutions, innovative concepts, and technologies, contributing to sustainable development, the transition to a low-carbon future, and the attainment of emissions targets outlined by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews publishes a diverse range of content, including review papers, original research, case studies, and analyses of new technologies, all featuring a substantial review component such as critique, comparison, or analysis. Introducing a distinctive paper type, Expert Insights, the journal presents commissioned mini-reviews authored by field leaders, addressing topics of significant interest. Case studies undergo consideration only if they showcase the work's applicability to other regions or contribute valuable insights to the broader field of renewable and sustainable energy. Notably, a bibliographic or literature review lacking critical analysis is deemed unsuitable for publication.
