Call for Papers: Digitalisation and Digital Twins for Low Carbon Energy Systems
Scope:
Emerging smart grid technologies including artificial intelligence, distributed ledger, and 5G/6G drive the decarbonisation of energy systems with the least cost. The digitalisation of modern power grids enables large volumes of data to be exploited for assisting accurate prediction, strategic planning, smart control, and massive trading in energy systems. Digital twins provide a virtual replica of physical assets to integrate the advanced metering, simulation, communication, optimisation, and control technologies, which are vital for enhancing the predictability, responsiveness, interoperability, and automation of multi-energy systems. New models and application modes need to be discovered to coordinate stakeholders, maximise benefits, adapt state-temporal transitions for energy systems.
This special issue aims to solicit the innovative research on theories and practices of digitalisation and digital twins for energy systems. The scope of the research includes a single (multiple) energy vector(s) (e.g., electricity, gas, or heat), temporal scale(s) (e.g., long-term planning or short-term operation), spatial scale(s) (e.g., local energy systems or whole energy systems), model design and applications, and enabling technologies.
