A two-stage inexact-stochastic programming model for planning carbon dioxide emission trading under uncertainty

摘要

In this study, a two-stage inexact-stochastic programming (T1SP) method is developed for planning carbon dioxide (CO_2) emission trading under uncertainty. The developed TISP incorporates techniques of interval-parameter programming (1PP) and two-stage stochastic programming (TSP) within a general optimization framework. The TISP can not only tackle uncertainties expressed as probabilistic distributions and discrete intervals, but also provide an effective linkage between the pre-regulated greenhouse gas (GHG) management policies and the associated economic implications. The developed method is applied to a case study of energy systems and CO_2 emission trading planning under uncertainty. The results indicate that reasonable solutions have been generated. They can be used for generating decision alternatives and thus help decision makers identify desired GHG abatement policies under various economic and system-reliability constraints.
