Micro-integrated energy systems

as a small-scale

distributed energy supply system that integrates multiple energy technologies

is one of the most promising application directions for artificial intelligence. Similar to robots

micro-integrated energy systems have strong sensing

decision-making and control capabilities through their large number of installed sensing units

energy management units and control devices

which are sufficient to constitute an atypical broad-sense embodied intelligent system in terms of hardware and software resources. The present paper proposes a systematic framework of embodied intelligence for micro-integrated energy systems

which is discussed in the context of its potential applications in embodied sensing

decision-making and execution within micro-integrated energy systems. The paper then proceeds to analyse the inspiration of embodied intelligence in the design of typical tasks

include monitoring and energy-saving optimisation

emergency fault handling and load shifting

and self-construction and self-maintenance

providing references for the construction of the next-generation intelligent micro-integrated energy system for use in ocean exploration

deep space exploration

polar research and other missions.
