Reference Model
Set of biomass type: \( b \in B \)
Set of time periods: \(t \in T\) (Time period 1 models 2030 and the last on models 2050)
Set of regions, indices \(i,j,p \in I\) , we use \(i\) to model regions with biomass, \(p\) for regions we are building facilities and \(j\) for the demand.
Decision Variables:
\( \overline{x}_{bipt} \) Transport quantity of biomass \( b \) from region \( i \) to facility \( p \) in period \( t \)
\( x_{pjt} \) Transport quantity of biofuel from facility \( p \) to region \( j \) at time \( t \)
\( y_{pt} \) number of open production facilities \( p \)in period \( t \)
Parameters:
\( a_{bit} \) maximum available amount of biomass \( b \) in region \( i \) in period \( t \)
\(f_{bit}^{pbm} \) price per unit of biomass \(b\) in region \(i\) at time \(t\)
\( HV^{bm} \) heating value of biomass \( b \)
\( HV^{bf} \) heating value of biofuel
\( c_{ij} \) distance between region \( i \) and \( j \)\( Conv \) conversion factor from units of biomass \( b \) to units of biofuel
\( d_{jt} \) demand in region \( j \) at the time \( t \)
\( f^{fix} \) periodic fixed operating costs for a facility
\( f^{inv} \) construction costs for a facility
\( f^{run} \) periodic variable operating costs for running a facility
\( UT \) uptime per year of a facility
\( LT \) lifetime of a facility
