Abstract

Sustainability approaches in transmission and maintenance planning of network utilities with different maintenance zones, which involve increasing the reliability of the transfer while employing maintenance teams fairly, pose decision-making challenges. For these utilities, the best model to employ is the maximum-flow model, which considers network reliability and destination stocks. Therefore, the crucial point is to understand how zone owners can cooperate to maximize reliable transmission and increases maintenance income while considering fairness in allocating maintenance teams to maintenance centers over several periods. A Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Programming (MINLP) model is presented in this paper for maximizing the reliability in network utility issues, allocating maintenance teams, and exploring edge statuses. Cooperative Transmission and Maintenance (CTM) planning is a dynamic, multi-duration decision-making problem. The problem scale in this study is significantly enlarged to separate the lines into active, inactive, and in-repair sets, and consequently, a genetic algorithm is proposed. This study examines these approaches and analyses them (including collaborative outputs and managerial insights) in the context of three major water pipeline zones. Based on sensitivity analysis for 81 collaborative scenarios, the highest and lowest synergies were 83.61% and 36.7%, respectively. Finally, several collaborative income-sharing strategies based on game theory are investigated.
