Frequency Security-Aware Production Scheduling of Utility-Scale Off-Grid Renewable P2H Systems Coordinating Heterogeneous Electrolyzers

This paper proposes a unified co-optimization framework for utility-scale off-grid renewable power-to-hydrogen systems that coordinates heterogeneous electrolyzers and other resources to maximize hydrogen production while ensuring frequency security through a novel system-level response model and stage-wise transient constraints.

Learning Approximate Nash Equilibria in Cooperative Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning via Mean-Field Subsampling

This paper proposes an alternating learning framework for cooperative multi-agent reinforcement learning under communication constraints, where a global agent observes only a subset of local agents, and proves that this approach converges to an approximate Nash equilibrium with improved sample complexity compared to methods operating on the full joint state space.

Identification of Nonlinear Acyclic Networks in Continuous Time from Nonzero Initial Conditions and Full Excitations

This paper proposes a method to identify nonlinear acyclic networks in continuous time with nonzero initial conditions and full excitations, demonstrating that measuring all sinks is necessary and sufficient for identifying trees and general directed acyclic graphs, while utilizing higher-order derivatives and dictionary functions to recover edge dynamics and parallel paths.

Security-Constrained Substation Reconfiguration Considering Busbar and Coupler Contingencies

This paper proposes a security-constrained substation reconfiguration framework using a novel heuristic approach with multiple master problems (HMMP) and linear AC power flow to optimize substation topology while ensuring N-1 security against line, coupler, and busbar contingencies, thereby balancing system security and operational costs with improved computational scalability.
