It is challenging for the European power system to exactly predict RES output and match energy production with demand due to changes in wind and sun intensity and the unavoidable disruptions caused by severe weather conditions. Therefore, in order to address the so-called “flexibility challenge” and implement the variable RES production, the European Union needs flexible solutions. In order to accommodate quicker reactions, compared to those performed today, and the adaptive exploitation of flexibility, grid operators must adjust their operational business model, as the electrical grid transitions from a fully centralized to a largely decentralized system. OneNet aspires to complete this crucial step by setting up a new generation of grid services that can fully utilize distributed generation, storage, and demand responses while also guaranteeing fair, open, and transparent conditions for the consumer. Using AI methods and a cloud-computing approach, the current work anticipates that active management of the power system for TSO–DSO coordination will be improved by the web-based client-server application F-channel. In the current work, a user’s experience with the platform for a Business Use Case (BUC) under the scenario of severe weather conditions is presented. The current work aims to increase the reliability of outage and maintenance plans for the system operators (SOs) by granting them a more accurate insight into the conditions under which the system may be forced to operate in the upcoming period and the challenges that it might face based on those conditions. In this way, the methodology applied in this case could, via AI-driven data exchange and analyses, help SOs change the maintenance and outage plans so the potential grave consequences for the system can be avoided. The SOs will have accurate forecasts of the relevant weather parameters at their disposal that will be used in order to achieve the set targets. The main results of the presented work are that it has a major contribution to the optimal allocation of the available resources, ensures the voltage and frequency stability of the system, and provides an early warning for hazardous power system regimes.

“…Digitalization refers to the utilization of diverse technologies, such as cloud technologies, sensors, big data, and 3D printing, to develop new products, digital services, and innovative business models [56]. The instruments of digitalization encompass a wide range of solutions, including Management Information systems (MIS), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, cloud computing (CC), Big Data Analytics (BDA), Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems, Robotic Process Automation (RPA), the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning (AI/ML), Digital Collaboration Tools (DCC), E-commerce platforms, and Blockchain technology (BC) [57], [58], [59], [60], [61], [62], [63], [64], [65], [66], [67], [68].…”

The objectives of this article are to examine whether the application of digitalization in enterprise budgeting affects the fulfilment of budgeting functions and their qualitative characteristics, and to investigate whether the realization of budgeting functions brings benefits. The research was conducted from the perspective of contingency theory, both internal and external conditions. The study used an online survey targeting company budgeting staff. Structural Equation Modelling was utilized to validate the structural model (PLS-SEM technique). The conclusions confirm that the application of digitalization, which particularly pertains to ERP, Business Intelligence systems and accounting systems with budgeting solutions, positively impacts the fulfilment of budgeting functions and most of their qualitative characteristics, while Blockchain makes a minor contribution. Our research suggests that contingency variables, particularly internal ones such as company size, the quality of the organizational structure, and support for competitive strategy, continue to affect budgeting implementation even with the participation of digitalization in budgeting. Budgeting functions and their qualitative aspects are notably correlated with the advantages derived from budgeting, including financial performance, sustainable development and budget task execution.

“…Also, digitalization can facilitate citizens' participation in decision-making processes and in monitoring the activity of public institutions. Through digitalization, public institutions can benefit from innovative solutions, adapted to the needs and expectations of beneficiaries, and can respond more quickly to social, economic (Sohag et al, 2021) and environmental challenges (Kurniawan et al, 2022;Ha et al, 2022;Simion et al, 2023). Experience has shown that the Covid-19 crisis seems to have accelerated the digital transformation of public administration (Gabryelczyk, 2020).…”

The main aim of the paper was to reveal the main opportunities that the environment offers to the digitalization of public organizations, based on the systematic review of the specialized literature published in the Web of Science databases. From a methodological point of view, the research was carried out according to the PRISMA 2020 flow chart for the systematic reviews. In the initial phase, 347 articles/studies published in Web of Science on the topic of digitalization in public institutions were identified from which 43 articles/studies were excluded because they were not relevant for the purpose of the study. The systematic review of the literature that there is a significant amplification of concerns for the digitalization of public organizations, a fact demonstrated by the upward trend of publications and citations in the field, especially in recent years. The most important opportunities from the perspective of the digitalization of public institutions are economic (economic development and economic growth; Reducing administrative burden and designing a user-oriented approach; the delivery of appropriate services by the public sector and the restructuring of public institutions) and technological (big data, cloud storage, artificial intelligence, robots, chatbots, drones, virtual platforms and others).
