Review Artificial Intelligence Applications in Renewable Energy Systems Integration

The transition to renewable energy (RE) sources is critical for addressing global energy demands and environmental concerns. This review paper focuses on the pivotal role of Machine Learning (ML) and Deep Learning (DL) in optimizing and predicting the performance of RE systems, particularly solar and wind power. We explore various applications of these advanced technologies in forecasting energy demand and consumption, predicting the output power of renewable systems, and optimizing the operation and maintenance of these systems. The paper also delves into the significance of Explainable AI (XAI) in enhancing the transparency and understandability of AI models in energy applications. Our comprehensive analysis reveals that while ML and DL offer transformative potential in the RE sector, challenges such as data complexity, system integration, and model interpretability remain. Concluding, this work aims to provide a foundation for future research and development in this rapidly evolving field, asserting that the continued advancement and integration of AI technologies in RE systems is essential for achieving a sustainable and efficient energy future.
