Abstract (EN): In this paper we present four models of increasing complexity and completeness to evaluate the technical feasibility of a set of contracted powers according to commercial agreements established between generation entities and retailers, distribution companies or eligible consumers. In order to solve these optimization problems we used Simulated Annealing, SA, due to its capacity in escaping from local optima and its implementation easiness. The developed approach is illustrated using a Case Study based on the IEEE 24 bus system.
