This paper presents a nonlinear optimization-based model reduction method for multiscale stochastic optimal control problems governed by stochastic partial differential equations. The proposed approach constructs a non-intrusive, data-driven reduced-order model by employing a parameter-separable structure to handle stochastic dependencies and directly minimizing the L2 norm of the output error via gradient-based optimization. Compared to existing methods, this framework offers three significant advantages: it is entirely data-driven, relying solely on output measurements without requiring access to internal system matrices; it guarantees approximation accuracy for control outputs, aligning directly with the optimization objective; and its computational complexity is independent of the original PDE dimension, ensuring feasibility for real-time control applications. Numerical experiments on stochastic diffusion and advection-diffusion equations demonstrate the method's effectiveness and efficiency, providing a systematic solution for the real-time control of complex uncertain systems and bridging the gap between model reduction theory and practical engineering.
