Vehicle Scheduling Optimization of Biomass Supply Logistics: A Case of Power Plant Supply Chains

Abstract

The demands and features of biomass power plant have been investigated and analyzed by several researchers. However, the procedures and information flows of supply logistics in biomass power plants still require analysis. In this paper, we put forward a multi-objective model for vehicle scheduling, which is used in biomass power plant supply chains. In addition, a related algorithm for use in uncertain environments is provided. An efficiency plan with the lowest calculated transportation costs will be proposed.
