Anita Khosla - Renewable Energy Optimization, Planning and Control: Proceedings of ICRTE 2021

The book series aims to publish top-quality state-of-the-art textbooks, research monographs, edited volumes and selected conference proceedings related to infrastructure, innovation, control, and related fields. Additionally, established and emerging applications related to applied areas like smart cities, internet of things, machine learning, artificial intelligence, etc., are developed and utilized in an effort to demonstrate recent innovations in infrastructure and the possible implications of control theory therein. The study also includes areas like transportation infrastructure, building infrastructure management and seismic vibration control, and also spans a gamut of areas from renewable energy infrastructure like solar parks, wind farms, biomass power plants and related technologies, to the associated policies and related innovations and control methodologies involved.

It is a matter of great pleasure and honour that we had organized the prestigious International Conference on Renewable Technologies in Engineering. (ICRTE 2021), in association with Springer in Nature on 1516 April 2021, at Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies, Faridabad, India, in virtual mode due to the ongoing pandemic situation. The aim of this conference is to bring together academicians, researchers, scientists, engineers and practitioners to exchange and share their experiences, ideas and the results in the area of Renewable Sources Integration Planning and Control and their Optimization Solutions, Smart Structures for Intelligent Power with Use of Energy Storage and Transportation Systems and Industry Innovation and Automation in Smart Structures.

Renewable energy is a useful energy that is collected from renewable resources, which are naturally replenished on a human timescale, including carbon-neutral sources like sunlight, wind, rain, tides, waves and geothermal heat. It is often referred to as clean energy. It is with the very idea in mind that the Department of Electrical, Electronics and Communication Engineering at the Manav Rachna International Institute of Research and Studies, Faridabad, in association with Springer had taken this initiative in organizing an International conference on Renewable Technologies in Engineering (ICRTE 2021) on 1516 April 2021.

During the conference, research scholars, academicians and industry experts from different parts of the globe deliberated for 2 days on the interdisciplinary areas like Renewable Sources Integration Planning and Control and their Optimization Solutions, Smart Structures for Intelligent Power with Use of Energy Storage and Transportation Systems and Industry Innovation and Automation in Smart Structures.

It is great pleasure and honour for us to put together the the proceedings of International Conference on Renewable Technologies in Engineering (ICRTE 2021). All presented papers are arranged in two books.

Renewable Energy Optimization, Planning and Control and Smart Structures in Energy Infrastructure.

ICRTE 2021 is our humble effort at establishing a base, platform, against which we can build a brighter tomorrow.

We would like to express our gratitude to people without whose support we would not have been able to conduct this conference and compile all the papers.

We are pleased to note the overwhelming response to our call of papers from the authors for the conference. Our sincere thanks to all the authors for their contributions. We are also thankful to International Advisory Committee, National Advisory Committee, Local Advisory Committee and Springer for their motivation and support. We would like to extend our gratitude to reviewers who have worked hard in selecting high-quality papers and writing review reports.

Our special thanks to dignitaries gracing the inaugural function and the keynote speakers. We would also like to thank the session chairs for their valuable support in the smooth conduct of technical sessions. We are also thankful to our management for guidance and liberal help for the smooth conduct and success of the conference.

We are happy to mention that the organizing team of ICRTE 2021 has done a professional job in selecting the research papers and arranging them in technical sessions.
