Introduction to AI Techniques for Renewable Energy System

This book helps the undergraduate, graduate students and Academician to learn the concept of Artificial Intelligence techniques used in renewal energy with suitable real-life examples. Artificial intelligence (AI) techniques play an essential role in modeling, analysis, and prediction of the performance and control of renewable energy. The algorithms used to model, control, or predict performances of the energy systems are complicated involving differential equations, enormous computing power, and time requirements. Instead of complex rules and mathematical routines, AI techniques can learn critical information patterns within a multidimensional information domain. Design, control, and operation of renewable energy systems require a long-term series of meteorological data such as solar radiation, temperature, or wind data. Such long-term measurements are often non-existent for most of the interest locations or, wherever they are available, they suffer from several shortcomings (e.g. inferior quality of data, in-sufficient long series, etc.). For overcoming these problems, AI techniques appear to be one of the most substantial parts of the book. The book summarizes commonly used AI methodologies in renewal energy, with a particular emphasis on neural networks, fuzzy logic, and genetic algorithms. Book outlines selected AI applications for renewable energy. In particular, discusses methods using the AI approach for the following applications using suitable examples: prediction and modeling of solar radiation, seizing, performances, and controls of the solar photovoltaic (PV) systems.
