Offline Reinforcement Learning for Wind Farm Control: A Wind Tunnel Study under Dynamic Wind Directions

The paper introduces MTD3-BC, a model‑free offline reinforcement learning algorithm that optimizes yaw control for wind farms amid changing wind directions. By learning from a pre‑collected dataset and incorporating an action consistency term, it reduces the need for extensive simulator interactions. Experimental wind‑tunnel tests show that MTD3‑BC improves farm‑level power output by about 10% compared to a greedy baseline and matches a model‑based benchmark, all while cutting training costs dramatically.

Toward an Energy-Optimized Operation of Data Centers Located in Wind Farms Using Reinforcement Learning

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.

UniWind: Day-Ahead Wind Power Forecasting via Physics-Informed State Routing

UniWind is a wind power forecasting framework that blends physics-informed generation priors with data-driven state-aware corrections. It constructs a site‑calibrated physical prior using a monotone warp and a shared power curve, then refines this prior with a latent state encoder and a state‑aware power corrector guided by pseudo‑labels. Experiments on 24 real‑world datasets show that UniWind achieves strong forecasting accuracy, robustness, and generalization across full‑shot, cross‑farm zero‑shot, and cross‑region zero‑shot scenarios.
