Popis
Shrnutí:This paper presents an application of genetic algorithms (GA) for solving the long‐term power generation expansion planning (PGEP) problem, a highly constrained nonlinear discrete optimization problem. The problem is formulated into a mixed integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) program that determines the most economical investment plan for additional thermal power generating units over a planning horizon, subject to the requirements of power demands, power capacities, loss of load probability (LOLP) levels, locations, and environmental limitations. Computational results show that the GA‐based heuristic method can solve the PGEP problem effectively and more efficiently at a significant saving in runtime, when compared with a commercial optimization package.
