RT Journal Article T1 A Novel Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL) Algorithm to Apply Artificial Intelligence-Based Maintenance in Electrolysers A1 Abiola, Abiodun A1 Segura Manzano, Francisca A1 Andújar Márquez, José Manuel AB Hydrogen provides a clean source of energy that can be produced with the aid of electrolysers.For electrolysers to operate cost-effectively and safely, it is necessary to define an appropriatemaintenance strategy. Predictive maintenance is one of such strategies but often relies on data fromsensors which can also become faulty, resulting in false information. Consequently, maintenancewill not be performed at the right time and failure will occur. To address this problem, the artificialintelligence concept is applied to make predictions on sensor readings based on data obtained fromanother instrument within the process. In this study, a novel algorithm is developed using DeepReinforcement Learning (DRL) to select the best feature(s) among measured data of the electrolyser,which can best predict the target sensor data for predictive maintenance. The features are used asinput into a type of deep neural network called long short-term memory (LSTM) to make predictions.The DLR developed has been compared with those found in literatures within the scope of this study.The results have been excellent and, in fact, have produced the best scores. Specifically, its correlationcoefficient with the target variable was practically total (0.99). Likewise, the root-mean-square error(RMSE) between the experimental sensor data and the predicted variable was only 0.1351.
