An optimal renewable portfolio standard using genetic algorithm-benders' decomposition method in a least cost approach

This paper presents the Least Cost Renewable Energy Portfolio Analysis (LCREPA) approach that utilizes the Genetic - Algorithm Benders' decomposition (GA-BD) method, which could achieve an order of magnitude of improvement in terms of run times at larger instances, in determining the optimal Re...
