Considering the current world trends, the most challenging issue industry is facing revolves around how to reduce the power consumption of electronic systems. Since the invention of computers, electrical energy consumption has increased dramatically; this is due to the emergence of new systems in industry. Systems like industrial robots and autonomous vehicles—including electric vehicles (EVs) and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs)—have had a great impact in making human life easier but have also led to higher energy consumption. At present, researchers and developers are actively seeking solutions and patents to optimize the energy consumption of the mentioned systems and generate savings, with the goal of reducing their environmental impact and improving their efficiency and effectiveness. From the literature review, papers related to energy optimization and energy consumption are considered vital, and a huge number of research publications and survey papers discuss it. This paper presents a systematic review of the classification and analysis of various methodologies and solutions that have been developed to enhance the energy performance of robotic systems, focusing on industrial robots, autonomous vehicles, and embedded systems. The aim of this research is to provide a reference point for the existing methods, techniques, and technologies that are available. It compares and evaluates different hardware and software methods related to industrial robots, autonomous vehicles, and embedded systems, highlighting the possible future perspectives in the field.

“…They determine the energy consumption of every activity with the knowledge of the path, time the movement, parameters of speed and acceleration, and a sufficiently accurate model of the robot. Figure 1 and 2 shows the simulated data obtained by Tomas et al [6] and determined the optimal parameters of speed and acceleration, which can save up to 40% of energy consumption when one takes minimal time against optimal energy consumption. Figure 1 displays various settings of speed and acceleration, which can optimize energy consumption without time losses.…”

Considering the actual world economical trends, one of the most important questions is now and in the future: how to reduce power consumption of electronic systems. Since the invention of computers, the electrical energy consumption step by step increased. Now when not only computers, but electric vehicles, robots, automation, and unmanned aerial vehicles play a very important role of our life, the main problem of system designers is how to reduce energy consumption in these systems. But also the existing already working systems must be revised in order to decrease their electric power consumption. The importance of this subject (energy control) shows that a huge number of research publications and survey papers deal with it. Just focusing on the last one or two years (2021 and 2022) the search hit 221000 titles (103000 hits only in 2022). Analyzing all the research areas is almost impossible, but focusing on some important research subjects, where one of the main topic is “energy saving methods” can give an overview about the subject. The paper focuses on the area of industrial robotic systems, electric vehicles, and embedded systems.
