The Study On Optimization For Warehousing And Distribution Networks In Electric Power Industry

With the development of society, electricity has been extended to reach all corners of the world, stable power supply is the assurance of maintenance in normal production and life, and is also the basic requirements in the power companies'management and operation. However, with the accelerated pace of reform in the power industry, power companies in the future will face more fierce competition, in the face of such a market environment, the power companies want to survive and develop .they must not only to ensure the premise of a higher level of service and also to do something in controlling cost.In this paper based on the current situation of that the means of controlling cost is still relatively backward status quo in electric power industry, and select warehousing and distribution as the optimize area of controlling cost in the power industry, adopt a new warehousing and distribution networks to significantly reduce the cost in inventory, transportation, etc. This paper assume unlimited storage capacity, inventory management using a continuous inspection strategy, the demands are known as with many other documents,? On this basis, this paper establish a traditional model of warehousing and distribution network and to minimize the costs as the objective function, the costs include the fixed costs, inventory costs and transportation costs.?And then based on the traditional model, this paper combine to the operating characteristics of the power companies and consider the constraints of distribution distance, the opportunity cost of inventory and safety stock,?Taking into account the central warehouse could distribute directly to the user, establish a optimization model of consisting with central warehouse and general warehouse, which are more suitable the power industry, the model's objective function is also the lowest cost, Finally, an example is used to analysis and compare to the traditional model and the Optimization model, the corresponding numerical results show that using the optimization model to reconstruct the warehousing and distribution network, the operating costs will reduce significantly, while the corresponding response of demand the level of inventory management will improve significantly...
