“…Only residential EMSs consider user data, namely consumers' preferences and priorities for various applications [53], consumers' comfort levels [23,43,50], and consumers' location [50]. Meteorological data includes outdoor temperature [46,50], solar irradiance [33,69], wind speed [61], and general weather conditions [69]. Most publications in residential and industrial EMSs use financial data, namely electricity prices.…”

“…In the literature analyzed, only industrial EMSs consider DP. Casini et al [59] model the control of an industrial microgrid, including EVs, and Dreher et al [61] use a DP-based unit commitment to finding an upper benchmark for an EMS in the context of CO 2 -neutral hydrogen production and storage for industrial combined heat and power application. As a software tool, MATLAB is used [59], and the time resolution is 1 h [61].…”

In industrial EMSs, Dreher et al [61] present an RL-based EMS for CO 2 -neutral hydrogen production. All the RL models are simulated via MATLAB and are validated by different use cases with a time resolution of 30 min [29].…”

The energy transition and the resulting expansion of renewable energy resources increasingly pose a challenge to the energy system due to their volatile and intermittent nature. In this context, energy management systems are central as they coordinate energy flows and optimize them toward economic, technical, ecological, and social objectives. While numerous scientific publications study the infrastructure, optimization, and implementation of residential energy management systems, only little research exists on industrial energy management systems. However, results are not easily transferable due to differences in complexity, dependency, and load curves. Therefore, we present a systematic literature review on state-of-the-art research for residential and industrial energy management systems to identify trends, challenges, and future research directions. More specifically, we analyze the energy system infrastructure, discuss data-driven monitoring and analysis, and review the decision-making process considering different objectives, scheduling algorithms, and implementations. Thus, based on our insights, we provide numerous recommendations for future research in residential and industrial energy management systems.

In pursuing clean energy systems and carbon neutrality, the efficient use of renewable energy is key. This research introduces a novel wind–solar–hydrogen multienergy supply (WSH‐MES) system, powered by renewables, designed to stabilize power output through regulated concentrating solar power (CSP) and proton exchange membrane electrolyzers (PEMEs). An active regulation strategy for thermal and hydrogen storage is developed to counterbalance the volatility of wind and photovoltaic power. Key results reveal that the WSH‐MES system surpasses WP–PV and WP–PV–CSP systems in reliability, reducing power supply loss probability to 2.81%. This improvement is largely due to the controlled CSP and PEME, which effectively mitigates the stochastic fluctuations in wind and solar power generation, thereby ensuring more stable and reliable power output. Moreover, the system achieves an 80.97% primary renewable energy rate and a 0.12 power discard rate. In conclusion, this research comprehensively examines the operational characteristics of the WSH‐MES system, elucidates the practical advantages of the WSH‐MES system in terms of reliability, renewable energy utilization, and adaptability under various conditions. The results offer valuable insights into the design and operation of multienergy supply systems, potentially fostering the large‐scale implementation of renewable energy systems and leading toward a sustainable energy future.
