Decentralized Collaborative Pricing and Shunting for Multiple EV Charging Stations Based on Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning
<|reference_start|>Decentralized Collaborative Pricing and Shunting for Multiple EV Charging Stations Based on Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning: The extraordinary electric vehicle (EV) popularization in the recent years has facilitated research studies in alleviating EV energy charging demand. Previous studies primarily focused on the optimizations over charging stations (CS) profit and EV users cost savings through charge/discharge scheduling events. In this work, the random behaviors of EVs are considered, with EV users preferences over multi-CS characteristics modelled to imitate the potential CS selection disequilibrium. A price scheduling strategy under decentralized collaborative framework is proposed to achieve EV shunting in a multi-CS environment, while minimizing the charging cost through multi agent reinforcement learning. The proposed problem is formulated as a Markov Decision Process (MDP) with uncertain transition probability.<|reference_end|>
