PowerMarketJax: A JAX Benchmark Suite for Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning in Power Markets

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2609.37321v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Power markets are a natural testbed for multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL), where multiple self-interested participants repeatedly submit bids. A market-clearing mechanism then determines dispatch and prices subject to power grid constraints and market settlement rules. However, existing MARL environments typically focus on a single market setting, implement simplified clearing mechanisms, or rely on CPU-based optimization solvers that slow large-scale training and limit the systematic study of bidding strategies and market behavior. We introduce PowerMarketJax, a benchmark suite for MARL across five power markets: day-ahead wholesale, real-time balancing, ancillary services, peer-to-peer double auctions, and local flexibility.
