Energy is what propels both personal growth and society advancement. As the energy environment changes, we must broaden our attention to include control and optimization in complex energy systems in addition to optimization alone. Although the growing energy needs of emerging economies are unavoidable, it is imperative to put policies in place that protect the environment and advance sustainability given the planet’s finite resources and the substantial climate change brought on by the power industry.

Research is continuously necessary to navigate the socioeconomic complexities of the energy sector. Nevertheless, the difficulties encountered in this field are yet complex resulting from issues like high dimensionality, nonlinearities, noisy or erroneous data. Furthermore, there are time limits associated with these problems, necessitating immediate responses. Therefore, for many energy problems, getting near-optimal and accurate solutions in a reasonable amount of time is one persistent difficulty.
