contents The challenges of the uncertainties in renewable energy generation and the instability of the real-time market limit the effective utilization of clean energy in microgrid communities. Existing peer-to-peer (P2P) and microgrid coordination approaches typically rely on certain centralized optimization or restrictive coordination rules which are difficult to be implemented in real-life applications. To address the challenge, we propose an intraday P2P trading framework that allows self-interested microgrids to pursue their economic benefits, while allowing the market operator to maximize the social welfare, namely the low carbon emission objective, of the entire community. Specifically, the decision-making processes of the microgrids are formulated as a Decentralized Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (DEC-POMDP) and solved using a Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) framework. Such an approach grants each microgrid a high degree of decision-making autonomy, while a novel market clearing mechanism is introduced to provide macro-regulation, incentivizing microgrids to prioritize local renewable energy consumption and hence reduce carbon emissions. Simulation results demonstrate that the combination of the self-interested bidding strategy and the P2P market design helps significantly improve renewable energy utilization and reduce reliance on external electricity with high carbon-emissions. The framework achieves a balanced integration of local autonomy, self-interest pursuit, and improved community-level economic and environmental benefits.
