A new research paper proposes an agentic aggregator framework to optimize electric bus fleet operations, considering factors like battery status, charger availability, electricity prices, and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) opportunities. The framework couples an optimization model with supervisory agents for disturbance detection and tariff adaptation. A case study demonstrated that this agentic approach can improve coordination and flexibility utilization, but also highlighted a potential trade-off where the system could extract value from public transport operators if configured for profit. The findings suggest a need for transparent coordination and value-sharing rules when deploying such systems. AI
IMPACT Agentic systems could streamline complex fleet operations and V2G integration, but require careful policy design for equitable value sharing.
