Time-of-Use (TOU) electricity pricing provides a new opportunity for industrial user to reduce their power costs and improve the efficiency of power energy. Although many methods for Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) under TOU pricing in continuous process industry have been proposed, there is difficulty in batch-type process industry because of that the power load units are not fixed but closely related with production planning and scheduling. In this paper, for hot rolling, a typical batch-type and energy intensive process in steel industry, a multi-objective production scheduling optimization model for ELD is proposed under TOU pricing, in which the objective is to minimize the power costs on the premise of ensuring the product quality. A NSGA-II based production scheduling algorithm is proposed to generate Pareto-optimal solutions, and then the TOPSIS based multi-criteria decision-making is performed to recommend an optimal solution to facilitate filed operation. Experimental results on practical production data show that the proposed method cut down the power costs by creating load units corresponding to electricity price and shifting loads to avoid on-peak time periods. |
