The global energy sector is in the process of making a dual transition towards decarbonization and digitalization. This paper discusses how the fundamental digital technologies, Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning, digital twins, edge computing, and blockchain facilitate environmental objectives in the energy sector by enhancing efficiency, integrating variable renewables, lowering emissions, and enhancing system resilience. Studies are reviewed to evaluate five pillars of applications, (i) integration of renewable energy through high‑fidelity forecasting, smart inverters, and AI‑aided dispatch, (ii) smart grids that employ ubiquitous sensing, automation, and edge intelligence for real‑time stability, demand response, and losses reduction, (iii) end‑use energy efficiency in buildings and industry through data‑driven controls and digital twin-based optimization, (iv) predictive maintenance of generation and network assets via condition monitoring and fault‑prediction models to reduce downtime and resource waste, and (v) emissions tracking and carbon management through IoT‑enabled monitoring, AI analytics, and blockchain‑backed certificates and markets. Observed benefits encompass double digit gains in energy efficiency, increased renewable penetration without reliability loss, quantifiable decreases in curtailment and peaking demand, and enhanced transparency in carbon accounting. Constrains such as cybersecurity, data privacy, interoperability, worker skills, and the energy profile of digital infrastructure are assessed with mitigation techniques such as privacy-preserving analytics, standard adoption, edge processing, and low-energy consensus mechanisms. Looking ahead, development in AI, IoT, digital-twin grids, 5G/6G‑facilitated edge coordination, sector coupling, and trusted decentralized markets will bring increasingly autonomous, adaptive, and verifiably low-carbon energy systems. Digitalization thereby presents itself as a catalyst and control layer for realizing scalable, equitable, and resilient decarbonization.

The findings indicate that AI technologies, including machine learning, predictive analytics, the Internet of Things (IoT), big data analytics, digital twins, robotics, autonomous vehicles, computer vision, and natural language processing, can significantly improve logistics performance through predictive maintenance, route optimization, demand forecasting, inventory and warehouse management, reverse logistics, and continuous carbon-emission monitoring. These applications enhance supply chain efficiency and resilience while reducing fuel consumption, greenhouse gas emissions, operating costs, and waste. However, major barriers to AI adoption include inadequate digital infrastructure, high implementation costs, cybersecurity risks, limited skilled human resources, and weak regulatory frameworks. In response, the study proposes a conceptual policy framework centred on investment in digital infrastructure, AI governance, public-private partnerships, research and innovation, and capacity building. The framework aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 9, 11, 12, 13, and 17. The paper concludes that AI represents a strategic enabler of green logistics and offers practical policy recommendations for researchers, industry practitioners, and governments seeking to accelerate the transition towards sustainable logistics in Nigeria and other emerging economies.
