Researchers introduce SolarChain-Eval, a benchmark for evaluating autonomous economic agents in decentralized energy markets under physical constraints. The benchmark formulates market governance as a Gymnasium-compatible MDP and assesses policies across market utility, physical safety, slippage, fairness, and auditability dimensions. An LLM-based Planner/Auditor layer is incorporated to constrain and log agent actions; experiments reveal a utility-safety trade-off where RL agents improve market utility but can still produce unsafe behavior, and the LLM layer cannot compensate for a misspecified reward function. Code and data are released open-access.
