Academic Press Applications of AI and IOT in Renewable Energy

Applications of AI and IOT in Renewable Energy provides a future vision of unexplored areas and applications for Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things in sustainable energy systems. The ideas presented in this book are backed up by original, unpublished technical research results covering topics like smart solar energy systems, intelligent dc motors and energy efficiency study of electric vehicles. In all these areas and more, applications of artificial intelligence methods, including artificial neural networks, genetic algorithms, fuzzy logic and a combination of the above in hybrid systems are included. This book is designed to assist with developing low cost, smart and efficient solutions for renewable energy systems and is intended for researchers, academics and industrial communities engaged in the study and performance prediction of renewable energy systems.
