Constraint-Aware Aggregation for Federated Reinforcement Learning in Microgrid Energy Coordination

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.

Distributed Constraint Optimization via Online Learning and Iterative Pricing with Application to Large-Scale Satellite Scheduling

arXiv:2607. 25835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Distributed constraint optimization problems (DCOPs) provide a popular framework for distributed decision making under limited communication, but many real-world instances are too large to solve monolithically.

Power Couple? AI Growth and Renewable Energy Investment

arXiv:2603. 26678v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: AI and renewable energy are increasingly framed as a "power couple," on the premise that surging AI demand will accelerate clean-energy investment, yet concerns persist that AI will entrench fossil-fuel carbon lock-in.

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.

LOOP-MAC: Learning-Based Multi-Agent Coordination with Guaranteed Local Feasibility in a Virtual Power Plant

LOOP-MAC is a decentralized learning-based framework for coordinating distributed energy resources in a virtual power plant. It guarantees local feasibility by construction and reduces the aggregate commitment gap through a two-stage decision process: learned coordination with neural optimizers and a local adjustment step that rebalances schedules without extra communication. In a 100-agent test, five communication rounds plus adjustment lowered the commitment gap from 5.1% to 0.75% and the optimality gap from 3.93% to 3.07%, with per-agent computation around 1.1 ms.

Optimization without Future Compromises? Decentralized Coordination via Collective and Reinforcement Learning

The paper introduces Hierarchical Reinforcement and Collective Learning (HRCL), a framework that combines multi‑agent reinforcement learning (MARL) with decentralized coordination. HRCL uses MARL at a high level to generate strategic guidance that limits the decision space for low‑level agents, enabling efficient short‑term coordination while considering long‑term effects. Experiments on synthetic, energy‑management, and drone‑swarm scenarios demonstrate faster convergence and significant reductions in system‑wide and individual costs compared to standalone MARL.
