Title

Effects of ICT’s on energy management systems


Abstract

The modern world is facing hedge amount of challenges in the area of energy management. Information and Communication technologies are on of most important tools for managing, monitoring and improving the energy consumption efficiency if they are implemented and used for that. Not all countries dealing with this issues successfully and effectively. Therefore scientific and practical solutions based on regions specifics are necessary. This article aims to analyze the peculiarities of Middle East countries in ICT usage in energy management sector. After conducting the researches, it can be stated that the positive influences of the ICTs’ in managing the energy management sector are valid, valuable and giving progressive results. The research results are presented further in the article and the peculiarities of the factors and the tools that are used to improve efficiency and sustainability of in the energy management sector in Middle East countries.
