The paper introduces DR‑Gym, an open‑source, Gymnasium‑compatible environment that simulates electric utility demand‑response programs at the market level. It uses a regime‑switching wholesale price model calibrated to real extreme events and physics‑based building demand profiles, providing a rich observational space and a configurable multi‑objective reward function for reinforcement learning. Baseline strategies and data snapshots demonstrate the simulator’s realism and learnability.

The paper presents a two-part workflow for analyzing smart‑meter data to uncover patterns of residential co‑adoption of photovoltaic (PV) systems and electric vehicles (EVs). First, dynamic time warping k‑means clustering identifies distinct daily import/export archetypes for PV‑only, EV‑only, co‑adopters, and neither groups, revealing a midday‑centered export pattern for many co‑adopters. Second, a bidirectional LSTM model trained on 21‑day windows achieves high detection performance (AUROC 0.991, macro‑F1 0.906) for PV/EV activity, outperforming tabular baselines and remaining robust across labeling rules and temporal splits.

The paper investigates how the operational value of deep‑learning PV disaggregation depends on deployment regimes—whether the model serves known customers, new customers, future periods, or new regions. Using Ausgrid smart‑meter data and cross‑dataset adaptation to Pecan Street, the authors benchmark several deep sequence architectures and find that deployment regime explains more error variation than model choice. Fine‑tuning on a small number of target‑region households can significantly reduce transfer error, and the benefits of long input windows vary by use case.
