Abstract (EN): This paper describes an approach to model and to solve the Generation Expansion Planning Problem, GEP, using Genetic Algorithms. This approach was developed in order to help investors in new generation capacity to take decisions regarding new investments. This approach was developed in the scope of the implementation of electricity markets given that they eliminated the traditional centralized planning activities leading to the creation of several generation companies competing to supply the demand. As a result, the generation activity is more risky than in the past and so it becomes important to develop new tools to help decision makers to analyze the investment alternatives, having in mind the possible behavior of the competitors. The developed model aims at maximizing the expected profits that will be obtained by an investor, while it evaluates the reliability and the security of supply and it incorporates uncertainties related with the volatility of electricity prices, with the reliability of generation groups, with the evolution of the demand, and with the operation and investment costs The developed model and the implemented solution algorithm will be applied to a Case Study to illustrate the use of the developed approach to build the expansion plans. © 2013, Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
