Abstract

Renewable energy power plants are increasingly expected to provide ancillary services to the grid. Yet, the variability of sources such as solar photovoltaics requires additional operational flexibility to deliver these services. In this context, hybrid energy storage systems (HESSs) offer an appropriate solution, because different technologies with complementary characteristics can be applied and leveraged to share the power demand and improve the overall performance. Yet, a proper power sharing requires a detailed model of the storage elements. This aspect has barely been studied in the literature, where most models consider constant efficiencies. Moreover, most formulations are based on optimisation problems that are computationally too demanding to be solved in real time. In this paper, a controller is proposed to minimise the losses of a HESS considering detailed power-dependent efficiency curves of each storage technology. The power sharing method is based on the analytical verification of the Karush-Kuhn-Tucker (KKT) conditions, which makes it computationally efficient and suitable for real-world deployment. The proposed controller is applied to a test case consisting of a 10 MW PV power plant with a HESS based on a lithium-ion battery and a redox-flow battery, each with 2.5 MW power and 5 MWh capacity. The main contributions are verified via numerical simulations performed in MATLAB/Simulink, whereas a real-time implementation deployed in OPAL-RT demonstrates the viability of the algorithm for real-time applications.

Opinion Dynamics in Social Multiplex Networks with Mono and Bi-directional Interactions in the Presence of Leaders

We delve into the dynamics of opinions within a multiplex network using coordination games, where agents communicate either through one-way or two-way interactions, and where a designated leader may be present. By employing graph theory and Markov chains, we illustrate that despite zero diagonal elements in transition probability matrices or decomposable layers, opinions converge under specific conditions on the layers, leading to a consensus, and we show by a counterexample that a spanning tree in the union of the layers does not suffice. We further scrutinize the convergence rates of opinion dynamics in networks with one-way versus two-way interactions. We find that in networks with a designated leader, opinions converge towards the initial opinion of the leader, whereas in networks without a designated leader, opinions converge to a convex combination of the opinions of agents. Moreover, we emphasize the crucial role of designated leaders in steering opinion convergence within the network. Paired experiments on 1,200 random multiplex networks show that a leader slows down convergence, and that two-way interactions slow it down in the presence of a leader but speed it up in its absence.

Network-Aware Progressive Replacement Sequence Planning for Laser-Enhanced BeiDou Navigation Constellations

The early satellites of the third-generation BeiDou Navigation Satellite System (BDS-3) are approaching the end of their design lifetime, making progressive constellation replacement an inevitable engineering task. Meanwhile, laser inter-satellite links (LISLs) offer high-precision time transfer, ranging, and high-rate data forwarding, providing a promising upgrade path for future BeiDou satellites. This paper investigates the replacement-sequence planning problem for progressively replacing legacy microwave satellites with laser-enabled satellites from a networking perspective. Since practical replacement decisions remain constrained by legacy satellite lifetime, on-orbit condition, laser satellite manufacturing readiness, and launch scheduling, networking information is used as an auxiliary criterion in the actual engineering replacement process. An integer linear programming model is developed to evaluate the network value of intermediate laser--microwave hybrid states. Based on this common state evaluator, two complementary planning methods are developed. A priority-aware exact method supports round-wise network-assisted launch decisions, while a visibility-guided adaptive large-neighborhood search is used for full-sequence planning and provides a full-horizon network-oriented near-optimal reference. Simulations using the actual BDS-3 constellation show that stronger network participation leads to earlier and larger ground-connected laser subnetworks, fewer microwave-dependent satellites, better coordination between laser-backbone growth and high-rate ground access, and improved residual microwave-layer performance. These results provide a quantitative basis for incorporating network performance as an auxiliary criterion in future BeiDou replacement planning.

Physically Constrained Agentic AI for Energy Scheduling

Agentic AI extends energy management beyond fixed-form interaction by translating natural-language requests into coordinated scheduling actions. We present a hierarchical ReAct Energy Management System (EMS) in which one orchestrator coordinates specialist agent types for shiftable appliances, EV charging, and thermal control. Physical authorization is separated from language generation: a deterministic critic reconstructs each integrated day-ahead candidate and checks its schema, appliance cycles, device power, thermal comfort, and, when active, the whole power feeder limit. Across Qwen 3.5 checkpoints, single-appliance mixed-integer schedules were feasible in 83.3 percent of runs. Localized feedback produced no accepted coupled schedule, whereas a multi-step policy authorized 6/6 current coupled runs: 3/3 for 27B and 3/3 for 35B-A3B. The standard occupied-window policy permits pre-conditioning, enforces comfort from 09:00-18:00. Every accepted schedule passed an independent final replay. Feasible costs were 2522.499 JPY for 27B and 1592.697 JPY for 35B-A3B, which are slightly higher than the mathematical optimization optimum of 1343.380 JPY. These results establish a fail-closed workflow for agentic MIP and MILP energy scheduling under the declared physical model.
