Sustainable energy development consists of design, planning, and control optimization problems that are typically complex and computationally challenging for traditional optimization approaches. However, with developments in artificial intelligence, bio-inspired algorithms mimicking the concepts of biological evolution in nature and collective behaviors in societies of agents have recently become popular and shown potential success for these issues. Therefore, we investigate the latest research on bio-inspired approaches for smart energy management systems in smart homes, smart buildings, and smart grids in this paper. In particular, we give an overview of the well-known and emerging bio-inspired algorithms, including evolutionary-based and swarm-based optimization methods. Then, state-of-the-art studies using bio-inspired techniques for smart energy management systems are presented. Lastly, open challenges and future directions are also addressed to improve research in this field.

<div>This contribution aims to propose a high-level architecture for IEnMS that incorporates IoT and Big Data. This is necessary because although IoT and Big Data have been considered in home energy management systems (HEMS), their implementation and applications in IEnMS are not well studied.</div>

Transitions is today’s debate in almost all topics both in academia and practice. Energy transitions among others, have received relatively more attention, due to the global demand for increasing energy efficiency and lowering environmental impacts. In recent decades, energy management systems, through implementing energy management programs and related practices within industrial companies, have played a vital role in enhancing industrial energy efficiency performance levels. However, still there are problems at very first step of energy management program installation, which is decision-making. Despite market and non-market failures, lack of information, inadequate knowledge, the consequent increase in the perception of risk and uncertainty can be addressed as potential reasons for mentioned problems. Another essential reason can be explained through how an energy program is characterized by people who are attending at an energy-related decision desk. Keeping in mind that allocation of the budget for any investment should not only have financial conformation, but also a strategic value for the company, this paper aims to discuss the impacting parameters on industrial energy-related decision-making and behavior patterns with respect to the critical role of industrial energy management systems.

Latvia’s industrial energy efficiency policy imposes the implementation of mandatory energy audits and energy management systems in large industrial enterprises and large industrial electricity consumers to improve industrial competitiveness, to move towards a carbon-neutral economy and to increase the security of supply. Companies affected by this energy efficiency policy are obliged to report to the national energy efficiency monitoring system on energy efficiency measures indicated in energy audits or energy management systems with the highest savings or economical potential. The purpose of this study was to assess the initial outcomes of the first industrial energy efficiency program in Latvia, using data from the national energy efficiency monitoring system, including an analysis of individual energy audit reports, and benchmarking it with findings from a similar program, thereby revealing untapped energy efficiency and CO2 emission reduction potential. Although the national monitoring system made it possible to ascertain results of the energy efficiency program, the statistical analysis of the data did not allow for a robust conclusion on the technical or economic industrial energy efficiency potential. This study suggests that Latvia’s energy efficient policy should continue its course in implementation and provides recommendations for improvements on the national energy efficiency monitoring system.
