Addressing Terminal Constraints in Data-Driven Demand Response Scheduling

Electrified chemical processes are incentivized by exposure to time-varying electricity markets to operate flexibly, but participating in demand response schemes can require satisfying terminal constraints over long horizons. Specifically, terminal constraints may be required when computing optimal schedules in order to preserve dynamic stability. Model-based optimization methods are computationally costly, and data-driven scheduling via reinforcement learning (RL) faces severe credit-assignment challenges. We integrate Goal-Space Planning (GSP) with Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (DDPG), using learned temporally abstract models over discrete subgoals to propagate value across extended horizons. Using a simulated air separation benchmark, we demonstrate the proposed approach improves sample efficiency over standard DDPG while satisfying terminal storage constraints, mitigating myopic control behavior.

Distributional Reinforcement Learning for Scheduling of Chemical Production Processes

Reinforcement Learning (RL) has recently received significant attention from the process systems engineering and control communities. Recent works have investigated the application of RL to identify optimal scheduling decision in the presence of uncertainty. In this work, we present a RL methodology tailored to efficiently address production scheduling problems in the presence of uncertainty. We consider commonly imposed restrictions on these problems such as precedence and disjunctive constraints which are not naturally considered by RL in other contexts. Additionally, this work naturally enables the optimization of risk-sensitive formulations such as the conditional value-at-risk (CVaR), which are essential in realistic scheduling processes. The proposed strategy is investigated thoroughly in a parallel batch production environment, and benchmarked against mixed integer linear programming (MILP) strategies. We show that the policy identified by our approach is able to account for plant uncertainties in online decision-making, with expected performance comparable to existing MILP methods. Additionally, the framework gains the benefits of optimizing for risk-sensitive measures, and identifies online decisions orders of magnitude faster than the most efficient optimization approaches. This promises to mitigate practical issues and ease in handling realizations of process uncertainty in the paradigm of online production scheduling.
