Abstract: | Quantum computing is a rapidly expanding domain attracting researchers across various industries. One significant application is in the energy systems domain, which was the main focus of this paper. Energy systems contain different components that efficiently deliver electric energy to consumers. Some of these components can greatly benefit from the computational power and optimization capabilities of quantum computers, which can aid with advancing the efficiency of energy systems. This paper aimed to provide an overview of the milestones achieved in the literature regarding quantum computing algorithms in energy systems. The overview analyzed the intersection of quantum computing algorithms and energy systems, specifically in photovoltaic cells, wind turbines, and weather forecasting. The result was a comprehensive summary of innovative quantum algorithms applicable to solar and wind farms, along with an identification of gaps in the field. |
