Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

The increasing penetration of renewable energy sources in modern power grids poses significant challenges in maintaining voltage stability, frequency regulation, and optimal power dispatch due to the stochastic nature of generation and demand. This paper introduces a multi-objective graph-based reinforcement learning (MO-GRL) framework that optimally manages energy storage systems (ESS) to enhance voltage stability, provide synthetic inertia for frequency support, and maximize energy efficiency. The proposed model integrates Koopman operator theory for predictive ESS dynamics, graph neural networks for learning spatial relationships in power networks, and soft actor-critic reinforcement learning for multi-objective optimization. Furthermore, a Lyapunov-based stability constraint is incorporated to ensure the robustness of voltage and frequency control policies under uncertain conditions. Compared to conventional techniques, MO-GRL dynamically adjusts control policies based on real-time grid states, offering improved adaptability. Simulations on an IEEE 33-bus test system demonstrate significant improvements, including a 42% reduction in voltage deviations, a 39% decrease in frequency deviations, and a 37% improvement in ESS utilization efficiency. The proposed method effectively mitigated voltage spikes that previously rose above 1.04 p.u., successfully limiting peak voltage levels to 1.03 p.u. and lower. Similarly, during peak evening demand conditions, the voltage dips that fell below 0.95 p.u. were stabilized above 0.96 p.u. The controlled voltage profile-maintained values near the desired reference of 1.00 p.u., ensuring improved voltage stability across the 24-hour operation.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
