IntroductionThe energy sector is facing increasing challenges and is undergoing significant changes that increase its complexity and have led to the need for innovative energy management strategies. Currently, 85% of the world population utilizes electricity, with coal representing the main resource for 40% of the world’s electricity (Bhattacharjee, S., Nandi, C., 2019). Coal also produces 70% of the carbon dioxide emissions (CO2) from the generation of electricity (World Nuclear Association, 2022).The EU has set long-term goals of reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 80–95% when compared to 1990 levels by the year 2050. With the so-called “European Green Deal,” the EU aims to be climate-neutral by 2050. Climate neutral means an economy with net-zero greenhouse gas emissions, which will create the need for decarbonization of the energy system while at the same time ensuring the security and safety of energy supply (European Union (2050) Long term strategy, 2019).Moreover, in September 2015, the United Nations General Assembly formally adopted the Agenda for Sustainable Development (United Nations: Sustainable development Agenda, 2015). This comprises a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), to address the global challenges the world is facing, including those related to poverty, inequality, climate change, environmental degradation, peace and justice. Among all 17 goals, there are a several that are deeply connected to challenges in the education, energy sector and industry innovation and infrastructure. These include: quality education (SDG 4); ensuring access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy (SDG 7); building resilient infrastructure, promoting sustainable industrialization and fostering innovation (SDG 9); partnerships for the goals achievement (SDG 17) (United Nations: Sustainable Development Goals, 2015).It is clear, that growing energy generation and consumption together with renewable energy electrical systems development along with fostering innovations in ICT sphere, social aspects in scope of quality education are the major worldwide concerns. Structurally society major concerns are presented in (Fig.1). These concerns need to be directed comprehensively in order to properly achieve the long-term goals of the EU as well as in the broader sense- Sustainable Development Goals.
