An environmentally conscious robust optimisation approach for planning power generating systems
This study proposes a robust optimisation capacity expansion planning model that yields a less sensitive solution due to variations in model parameters such as demand and fuel prices. By adjusting the penalty parameters, the model can accommodate the decision maker's risk aversion and yield a solution based upon it. The proposed model is then applied to Ontario Power Generation, the largest power ...
