Dear Researchers,
We're excited to share our newly published research article titled:
*“Smart Green Energy Management for Campus: An Integrated Machine Learning
and Reinforcement Learning Model”*
in *Smart Cities* (MDPI), Volume 8, Issue 1, 2025.
*Access the full article here:*

This work presents a *smart green energy management system (SGEMS)* that
integrates *machine learning* (XGBoost) with *reinforcement learning* to
optimize both energy consumption and solar generation across a university
campus setting. Using real-world data from campus buildings, the system
achieves high prediction accuracy (RMSE: 14.72 for energy consumption;
75.45 for solar generation) and enables data-driven energy decision-making
through a web-based interface.
*Key Contributions:*
-
Integrated ML + RL framework for energy forecasting and optimization.
-
Real-time dashboard to support energy-aware decisions for grid
independence.
-
Campus-wide application using data from the Valahia University of
Targoviste (UVTgv), Romania.
-
Benchmarks set for future green campus initiatives.
This research offers valuable insights for professionals and researchers
working in:
-
Smart Cities and Sustainable Campuses
-
Renewable Energy Management
-
AI Applications in Infrastructure
-
IoT-based Energy Systems
I hope you find the article informative and helpful in your work. Please
