PowerZooJax is a JAX-based benchmark suite designed for reinforcement learning in power system operation. It offers five constrained Markov decision process tasks covering generation, transmission, distribution, distributed energy resources, and data center microgrids. By implementing power flow, economic dispatch, market clearing, and device dynamics as JAX computation graphs, the entire training and evaluation loop runs on the GPU, yielding significant speedups over CPU-based simulations and enabling standardized evaluation of policy returns, safety violations, and out-of-distribution stress conditions.
arXiv:2607. 12763v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Federated Reinforcement Learning (FedRL) enables coordination of distributed energy resources without sharing raw local data, but standard aggregation methods such as FedAvg do not account for system-level constraints, often leading to unsafe global behavior.
This paper studies Reinforcement Learning as an online controller for curtailment-aware workload shifting in wind-turbine-integrated high-performance computing (HPC) data centers. We introduce a reproducible fixed-day simulation framework with synthetic wind and price signals and delayed completion feedback, designed to be extensible toward more complex scenarios.
arXiv:2608. 15041v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coordinating multiple interacting units in complex engineering systems is challenging when system interactions are difficult to model, operational information is heterogeneous, and low-level actions must satisfy strict constraints.
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.
