A deep reinforcement learning–based control architecture is proposed to coordinate heat pumps, thermal storage, renewable energy, and demand response in data center waste heat recovery systems. The agent learns optimal control actions from system states and reward feedback to achieve electrical–thermal co‐optimization under realistic operational ...
