Interested in how multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) can support the decentralization and decarbonization of energy networks and mitigate the associated challenges? Have a look at our survey, written with Chaimaa Essayeh, @UoE_Agents, and @TMorstyn arxiv.org/abs/2404.15583

Perth West showed that the implementation of a smart local energy system (SLES) composed of a PV farm and utility-scale battery can reduce site emissions by 48% @innovateuk @UKRI_News #energysmartplaces @TMorstyn @EdinburghUni
New @EnergyREV_UK report released: Perth West as a Case Study for the value of Greenfield Smart Local Energy System
A £500m mixed-use expansion to Perth, with 3,500 houses, an industrial hub, electric vehicle facilities and a renewable generation park.

New partnership with @nationalgriduk to help decarbonise power transmission. Great work from the whole team on getting this partnership going. More information on: edinburgh-innovations.ed.ac.… (my photography hobby also paid off with this featured picture 📷)

New paper out🚨It's hard to navigate the space of distributed energy resources coordination! The literature is growing exponentially, with many words like 'P2P' and 'transactive energy' thrown around. How do all coordination strategies relate to each other?bit.ly/3wP5cMP

First PhD paper published! 🎉
We propose novel scalable multi-agent reinforcement learning algorithms for the distributed control of residential flexibility, including EVs and smart heating. @MD_MCCULLOCH @TMorstyn authors.elsevier.com/a/1enWf… #energytwitter #reinforcementlearning

ALT A framework for participation of prosumers in peer-to-peer energy trading and flexibility markets A framework is proposed to enable prosumers to join in P2P and flexibility markets. Proposing a local market employ flexible assets to manage the network by the DSO. A community-based flexibility market is designed to ensure the network’s security. An iterative auction is designed to clear flexibility markets in networks’ feeders.

Paying for electricity based on its price at the point of connection would benefit consumers and the planet, but volatile prices are unappealing to consumers. Dr Iacopo Savelli's latest research explores a potential solution: sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

New paper looking at the tension between the transmission and distribution systems when it comes to EV smart charging.
I have also tried to explain the main concepts in a more accessible form in a blog post.

It was great to be part of this report and launch, exploring all aspects of peer to peer #energy trading for #solar!
The STA has worked closely with experts at @UCL and @UniofOxford to produce a new report on the potential for #P2P trading to transform #solar in the UK. Today, special guests are being treated to exclusive access to the report before Xmas, and hearing from experts in the field.

Ep 5 is on energy economics w/ Dr. @JacquelynPless of @MITSloan & Dr. @mu_lynch of @ESRIDublin. How do electricity markets work? How can we incentivise innovation in new energy tech? Will we all become electricity traders? Do we need to regulate tariffs? shows.pippa.io/the-irish-eco…

We welcome @CllrSusanBrown and @CllrTomHayes from Oxford City Council, who have recently announced amendments to their proposed #zeroemission zone. They're aiming for zero transport emissions in the city by 2035, phased in from 2020, showing their commitment to #LoveCleanAir!

Interesting article on how the UK's energy grid will cope with the electric car revolution, referencing work from EPG suggesting only 20MW of additional capacity required if smart charging can be utilised, compared to 20GW otherwise.
