Abstract

With the growing demand for renewable energy worldwide, the application of artificial intelligence (AI) has become a driving force in promoting sustainable development. This study conducts a bibliometric analysis of 1054 articles published between 2000 and 2024 from the Web of Science Core Collection Database, applying CiteSpace, VOS Viewer, and Bibliometrix tools to construct a knowledge map of AI’s application in renewable energy transition. The results reveal an exponential growth in related academic literature, with the number of publications increasing by 650 % from 2019 to 2024 alone, indicating the intensifying interest in this field. Chinese scholars have emerged as leaders in this research area,…
