Sažetak
In this paper, a possibility is investigated to reduce the monthly electricity bills for a production plant, mostly through peak power costs reduction, by using a diesel-generator of appropriate size. The research relies on a dataset of mean powers drawn by a production plant from the electrical distribution grid in 15-minute intervals. A sequential linear program (SLP) based algorithm is created to account for the non-linearity of diesel consumption in a diesel-generator and the problem of optimal diesel-generator operation is solved for its various sizes. Diesel-generator maintenance is also considered and the cost suitably added to the overall value function.
