Electricity Generation Forecasting and Transfer Learning
Accurate forecasting is one of the keys to the efficient use of the limited existing energy resources and plays an important role in sustainable development. The existing research related to power forecasting can be grouped into three categories: (1) statistical models, (2) deep learning models, and (3) hybrid models. Statistical approaches are often based on autoregressive linear regression models. Deep learning models are based on various types of neural networks that employ a fixed lookback window to produce forecasts. Hybrid models combine two or more methods to create a single forecast.

Nature-Inspired Designs in Wind Energy: A Review
The field of wind energy stands at the forefront of sustainable and renewable energy solutions, playing a pivotal role in mitigating environmental concerns and addressing global energy demands. Biomimetics, drawing inspiration from biological systems, has long intrigued engineers and designers, tracing back to Leonardo da Vinci’s studies of bird flight and even earlier to myths like Daedalus and Icarus. Historical references, including King Solomon’s throne adorned with mechanical creatures and the Talmud’s tales of the Golem, illustrate this enduring fascination.

Methodology of Transport Corridor Modeling Using Petri Nets
Current models for evaluating sustainable transport corridors often lack a comprehensive framework capturing the multifaceted performance measures vital for holistic assessment especially at the early stages of operation, when detailed information on the performance indicators of these transport corridors is not available. This gap motivates a Petri net-based modeling approach that integrates key sustainability indicators into a flexible simulation tool.

Simulation Tools for Building Energy Management
Buildings consume significant energy worldwide and account for a substantial proportion of greenhouse gas emissions. Therefore, building energy management has become critical with the increasing demand for sustainable buildings and energy-efficient systems. Simulation tools have become crucial in assessing the effectiveness of buildings and their energy systems, and they are widely used in building energy management. These simulation tools can be categorized into white-box and black-box models based on the level of detail and transparency of the model’s inputs and outputs.
