Sažetak
Smart Cities and supporting technologies are a rapidly emerging research trend that incorporates interdisciplinary approach of several distinctive areas: energy and grid management, transport, infrastructure, and above all, integration methods based on information and communication technologies (ICT). Finally, the concept aims at complete energy independency of the city and its subsystems as one of the main characteristics, which is expected to elevate new control theories and applications, but also to leave its mark on advancing the society. Buildings are identified as the world’s largest energy consumers and are undoubtedly entering an era of comprehensive changes and multidisciplinary trends where ICT is suitable as an integration tool for different technologies for increasing the energy efficiency, i.e., achieving the zero-energy level. Multidsiciplinarity results in an increased need for high-end technology and highly competent experts with long-lasting procedures for modelling and consumption forecasting, which, from the economic perspective, is identified as the main obstacle to implementation of new technologies. Decentralised control trends are inherently overcoming the problem while keeping the subunits of the system independent in technology, legal and privacy aspects. By integration with renewable energy sources, buildings are becoming capable for active participation in distributed energy market. Buildings are integrated mutually, with electrical vehicles and infrastructure, into smart districts, grids, and finally cities. Papers in this special session will contribute to control area with focus on buildings and transport energy efficiency increase, and coordination of the two for energy- and cost- optimal behaviour.
