Presentation Title:

Digital Twin & Artificial Intelligent for Renewable Energy & Energy Storage Systems

Abstract:

Digital twins can be particularly useful in the field of renewable energy and Energy storage systems along with the AI, which are an important technology for improving energy efficiency and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. As an example, Digital twins can be highly valuable in the field of battery technology, where they can be used to simulate and optimize the performance of batteries in real-time. Battery digital twins can help to improve the efficiency and lifespan of batteries and reduce the risk of failure or safety issues. Also, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to bring several benefits to the energy sector.

Overall, digital twins and AI can play a critical role in improving the performance, efficiency, and safety of renewable energy and energy storage systems, which are becoming increasingly important in a wide range of applications. In this presentation, Digital Twin and Artificial Intelligent application will be discussed in detail for renewable energy and energy storage applications, example of different applications will be provided.
