Generator maintenance scheduling in the generation expansion planning of interconnected power system

This paper presents a model for generator maintenance scheduling in the generation expansion planning of large-scale interconnected power system. The reliability requirements of all the systems including the whole interconnected system and its subsystems, and the influence of the power transferred in the interconnected lines are all taken into account by the model. Meanwhile, the traditional algorithms can also be applied to this model. So the model presented by this paper is of great practicability.
