Aiming at the coordinated control of charging and swapping loads in complex environments, this research proposes an optimization strategy for microgrids with new energy charging and swapping stations based on adaptive multi-agent reinforcement learning. First, a microgrid model including charging. . Traditional energy storage stations use giant lithium batteries. Swap stations take a different approach: Think of it like a library for electricity - you borrow power when needed, return it when you're done. China's capital now has 126 swap stations functioning as energy storage stations. During. . The establishment of numerous battery swapping stations not only enhances the energy replenishment system for new energy vehicles but also acts as a “buffer” for the power system. In early April, the traditional energy giant Sinopec officially announced its partnership with CATL to join the battery.
