It is widely admitted that the use of fossil energy resources such as petroleum and gas is condemned to fade. To meet future energy demands, sustainable and renewable energy sources provide next-generation solutions. Among others, solar energy is of paramount interest since it is the most abundant and reliable source. Clean energy can be generated simply using photovoltaic (PV) devices. However, PV systems still present low efficiencies and high costs. Therefore, intensive research efforts have been made to improve the performance of PV converters, increase their efficiency and decrease their production cost. Therefore, the use of digital control to optimize the PV energy and decrease the cost is of interest.
The main objective of this Workshop is to present high-quality works on the integration of digital and intelligent systems in solar energy, such as artificial intelligence, machine learning, data analytics, big data, cloud computing, blockchain, Internet of Things, and embedded systems.
