Scenario creation method by genetic algorithm for evaluating future plan

Genetic algorithm (GA) is well-known as a search algorithm based on the mechanics of natural selection and natural genetics. The ability of adaptiveness of GA is available for various problems in industrial fields. In this paper, GA is applied to scenario creation for the evaluating future plan in order to support planner's work. The proposed method is based on the planner's knowledge which is used to create scenarios by planner. The effectiveness of the proposed method is demonstrated by numerical results for an example of application to the power system planning.
