Optimal combination of energy sources for electricity generation in Thailand with lessons from Japan using maximum entropy
This study uses maximum entropy method to find an optimal combination of energy sources for electricity generation in Thailand. It sets three targets including unit cost, risk and pollution. In the optimization process, it forms three constraints according to these three targets. It solves the syste...
