Abstract

Optimizing solar photovoltaic systems in complex urban environments requires intelligent and adaptive control strategies to account for the dynamic operational factors. This study presents a data-driven simulation and optimization framework for the “River Park, Facade” solar Photovoltaic installation using PyPSA for system modeling and multi- agent Deep Q-Learning (DQN) for control optimization. The system under study features a 30. 2 kW DC-rated array and a 30 kW AC inverter, with a measured annual output of 23. 38 MWh. The performance ratio (PR) of 84.3% based on meteorological inputs from Meteonorm are used for the analysis. To enhance operational efficiency, we deployed a multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) framework that exploits three cooperative agents: a cleaning agent to mitigate soiling losses, a tilt agent to maximize irradiance capture, and an inverter agent to regulate conversion efficiency. Each agent was trained within a PyPSA– OpenAI Gym environment using shaped rewards aligned with specific loss categories. The MARL system was validated through comparative overlay plots of the original system versus the RL-optimized version. Results demonstrate an increased monthly grid output in nearly all months and a slight but consistent improvement in PR. Additionally, higher cumulative energy production throughout the year, and a notable gain in total annual energy yield was observed in case of RL-enhanced regime. These findings confirm the potential of modular, reward-shaped MARL for real-time optimization of facade-integrated solar Photovoltaics systems for smart building energy systems in urban settings.
