As the world grapples with the urgent need for sustainable energy solutions, the limitations of traditional approaches to renewable energy forecasting become increasingly evident. The demand for more accurate predictions in net load forecasting, line loss predictions, and the seamless integration of hybrid solar and battery storage systems is more critical than ever. In response to this challenge, advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques are emerging as a solution, promising to revolutionize the renewable energy landscape. Machine Learning and Computer Vision for Renewable Energy presents a deep exploration of AI modeling, analysis, performance prediction, and control approaches dedicated to overcoming the pressing issues in renewable energy systems.

Transitioning from the complexities of energy prediction to the promise of advanced technology, the book sets its sights on the game-changing potential of computer vision (CV) in the realm of renewable energy. Amidst the struggle to enhance sustainability across industries, CV technology emerges as a powerful ally, collecting invaluable data from digital photos and videos. This data proves instrumental in achieving better energy management, predicting factors affecting renewable energy, and optimizing overall sustainability. Readers, including researchers, academicians, and students, will find themselves immersed in a comprehensive understanding of the AI approaches and CV methodologies that hold the key to resolving the challenges faced by renewable energy systems.
