Arbitrage of Energy Storage in Electricity Markets with Deep Reinforcement Learning
share
In this letter, we address the problem of controlling energy storage systems (ESSs) for arbitrage in real-time electricity markets under price uncertainty. We first formulate this problem as a Markov decision process, and then develop a deep reinforcement learning based algorithm to learn a stochastic control policy that maps a set of available information processed by a recurrent neural network to ESSs' charging/discharging actions. Finally, we verify the effectiveness of our algorithm using real-time electricity prices from PJM.
