Addressing Terminal Constraints in Data-Driven Demand Response Scheduling

ArXi:2605.14741v1 Announce Type: cross 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.
