Summary/Abstract: Artificial intelligence has decisive role for the economic development, for the transition from linear to circular economy and for the improvement of the well-being of people worldwide. Artificial intelligence is also closely connected to digitalization, automatization, smart systems, etc. Being everywhere around us, artificial intelligence enters in all sectors of the economy, including the energy sector. It improves economic performance, helps in forecasting and prevention, provides timely information and saves costs. In this sense, artificial intelligence is a valuable instrument also for the development and ensuring of the energy security in Bulgaria. It can be applied in all levels of the energy cycle – the upstream, midstream and downstream stages of production of energy resources, in the energy transport infrastructure, in the energy storage and also in the energy consumption. As a conclusion, it can be said that the timely application of artificial intelligence can reduce energy losses, optimize energy consumption, decrease energy expenses and give accurate and timely information for planning and forecasting.
