An '''energy management system''' ('''EMS''') is a system of computer-aided tools used by operators of electric [[public utility|utility]] [[electric power transmission|grids]] to monitor, control, and optimize the performance of the [[electricity generation|generation]] or [[electric power transmission|transmission system]]. Also, it can be used in small scale systems like [[microgrid]]s.<ref>{{Cite journal|title=Communication Based Control for DC Microgrids – IEEE Journals & Magazine|journal=Publications and Research |date=8 January 2018 |language=en-US|doi=10.1109/TSG.2018.2791361|s2cid=67870651|url=https://academicworks.cuny.edu/cc_pubs/589|last1=Saleh |first1=Mahmoud |last2=Esa |first2=Yusef |last3=Mohamed |first3=Ahmed |doi-access=free }}</ref><ref>{{Cite journal|title=Energy management algorithm for resilient controlled delivery grids – IEEE Conference Publication|journal=Publications and Research |date=October 2017 |language=en-US|doi=10.1109/IAS.2017.8101777|s2cid=25847292|url=https://academicworks.cuny.edu/cc_pubs/637|last1=Saleh |first1=Mahmoud |last2=Esa |first2=Yusef |last3=Mohamed |first3=Ahmed |last4=Grebel |first4=Haim |last5=Rojas-Cessa |first5=Roberto |url-access=subscription }}</ref>
