Optimal energy performance on allocating energy crops
Efthymios Rodias,Maria Lampridi,Alessandro Sopegno,Remigio Berruto,George Banias,Dionysis Bochtis,Patrizia Busato +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, both binary programming and linear programming methods are employed to solve the allocation problem with the aim of maximising the energy balance provided by the production system, showing that the linear solution is slightly better than the binary one in the basic scenario while focussing on suggesting alternative scenarios that would have an optimal energy balance.
