Enhancing their energy efficiency is essential to achieving climate resilience and meeting decarbonization goals. Despite abundant operational and sensor data, decision-making in these sectors often relies on heuristics and lacks systematic, transparent, and explainable analytical support. Existing Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based decision support methods frequently fall short in integrating robust data preprocessing, causal interpretation, and actionable recommendation generation, limiting their practical impact.\u003cbr\u003eThis book develops and validates an AI-driven decision support framework to improve energy efficiency in energy-intensive industrial and transportation systems. Guided by a three-cycle Design Science Research (DSR) methodology, the framework integrates complementary AI techniques into a modular, end-to-end architecture that transforms heterogeneous raw data into interpretable, actionable recommendations. It includes systematic data quality assessment and preprocessing pipelines, time-series segmentation, clustering key performance indicators for pattern recognition, causal inference methods to identify drivers of inefficiency, and a multimodal large language model (LLM)-based decision support module that translates analytical outcomes into domain-relevant strategies. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003eZhipeng Ma is a postdoctoral researcher from SDU Center for Energy Informatics at the University of Southern Denmark.
