Summary: The integration of prosumers in the energy market imposes new considerations in designing unified and sustainable frameworks for efficient use of the power and communication infrastructure. This transition presents a promising opportunity for sustainable energy trading, but some challenges need to be addressed to promote decentralized renewable-energy-oriented systems. A multi-level pro-decision framework is proposed for prosumer communities to achieve collective goals, prioritizing individual prosumers' decisions and relying on the 5G wireless network for coordination.

Summary: This paper proposes an energy-efficient resource allocation algorithm (EERAA) to prolong the lifetime of a WSN-based smart irrigation system under realistic scenarios. In the proposed algorithm, power allocation and subcarrier assignment are performed consecutively, considering the impact of intercarrier interference (ICI) caused by timing offset. The obtained results reveal that the proposed algorithm can reduce the network energy consumption by up to 30% while maintaining a high level of system performance in terms of secondary users' (SUs) averaged capacity.

Summary: Given the adaptable and efficient energy consuming devices in residential buildings, the use of a building energy management system (BMS) is encouraged for demand response (DR) initiatives. However, unwelcome interruptions and harsh instructions from the system discourage resident participation. Building automation control is crucial for improving energy efficiency and reliability of the electricity grid. Smart houses using the right sizing procedure and energy-management techniques can help reduce the demand on the grid and address power-system issues. This paper presents a methodology and decentralized building automation algorithm for efficient demand side management in a BMS.
