这篇论文用强化学习让风电场数据中心更省电，在单机场景下比较了PPO和SAC的效果，还试了模仿学习和奖励塑造。
该论文研究了强化学习作为在线控制器，用于风电场内数据中心的高性能计算（HPC）工作负载转移。使用固定日仿真框架结合合成风能和电价信号以及延迟完成反馈进行测试。在单个风轮机和单个数据中心的基准场景中，纯强化学习存在信用分配问题，早期白天未能充分利用免费风能。评估了两种互补措施：基于优化的模仿学习和基于势能的奖励塑造。在200天测试集上，PPO和SAC变体表现出色，但性能仍低于具有全局视野的优化器。
Toward an Energy-Optimized Operation of Data Centers Located in Wind Farms Using Reinforcement Learning
This paper studies Reinforcement Learning as an online controller for curtailment-aware workload shifting in wind-turbine-integrated high-performance computing (HPC) data centers. We introduce a reproducible fixed-day simulation framework with synthetic wind and price signals and delayed completion feedback, designed to be extensible toward more complex scenarios. As a controlled benchmarking basis, we then focus on the minimal case with one wind turbine and one co-located data center. In this setting, pure Reinforcement Learning exhibits a pronounced credit-assignment problem and tends to underuse free wind energy early in the day. We therefore evaluate two complementary countermeasures: optimization-based Imitation Learning and potential-based Reward Shaping. Across multi-seed training and a 200-day test set, Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) and a Soft Actor-Critic (SAC) variant with an additional on-policy update routine achieve strong empirical performance among learned policies, and both Imitation Learning and Reward Shaping provide improvements in relevant configurations. A performance gap to the optimizer remains, which is expected: the optimizer plans offline with full-day foresight, whereas Reinforcement Learning must decide online from current observations without future realizations. The benchmark and ablation results provide a transparent basis for extending the approach toward richer multi-site and continuous-time scenarios.
