LLM-Enhanced Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning for Unified Electric Vehicles-Charging Station-Grid Optimization in Public Charging Systems

The paper introduces a Large Language Model–enhanced Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning framework for optimizing electric vehicle charging, station profitability, and grid stability in public charging systems. By using an LLM to select interpretable features from IoT data and dynamically balance conflicting objectives, the approach unifies grid, EV, and station optimization in a single loop. Experiments show the method outperforms existing baselines, improving market efficiency and cutting training time by more than 70%.

Reinforcement Learning and Rule-Based Peer-to-Peer Pricing in Residential PV-BES Communities

The paper compares rule‑based and reinforcement‑learning (RL) pricing mechanisms for peer‑to‑peer electricity trading in residential photovoltaic communities. Rule‑based benchmarks—bill‑sharing, mid‑market rate, and supply‑demand‑ratio pricing—outperform the best RL policy in a PV‑only setup, while RL policies achieve higher community savings when battery storage is added. Across both configurations, SDR‑shaped pricing outperforms multiplier‑based parameterization, but benefit distribution remains heterogeneous among households.

Towards Sustainable Hydrogen Systems: Supply Chain Optimization with Model Predictive Control and Reinforcement Learning

This study evaluates four control strategies—rule-based, model predictive control (MPC), reinforcement learning without forecasts (RL‑NF), and reinforcement learning with forecasts (RL‑F)—for a renewable‑powered hydrogen supply chain. Using a unified, physically realistic simulation that includes electrolyzer constraints, storage dynamics, and grid limits, the authors find that MPC delivers the best economic performance by leveraging short‑term forecasts, while RL‑NF performs robustly without future information. RL‑F does not consistently outperform RL‑NF, indicating that forecast uncertainty and added state complexity can hinder forecast‑augmented learning.
