The first chapter sets out the problems of AM within the electricity in UK. In fact the UK electricity companies have owned and operated the UK electricity distribution networks since privatisation took place within UK electricity industry in 1990. Presently the RECs are coming under increasing regulatory pressure to provide a high quality of the service to the customers at minimum cost. To achieve this target, it is necessary to mange the distribution network in an economically efficient manner to ensure that the infrastructure remains in a satisfactory condition.

This report considers the role of optimisation in the asset management of a large distribution network. In particular, we look at how to determine the optimal policy for project release. Projects relating to replacement of existing assets and network re-design may be prioritised given capital rationing and/or performance improvement requirements. We focus on maintenance and replacement of a large distribution network (network structured system) and consider the application to electricity distribution networks. The electricity companies who own the UK electricity distribution networks are under pressure to provide a high quality supply to customers at minimum cost. For this particular problem a zero-one integer linear programming model is proposed for selecting an optimal project portfolio, based on the objectives and constraints of the network owner. The modelling approach described in this study would extend to the financial investment appraisal of capital projects for a broad range of manufacturing and energy related industries such as power generation, refining and water supply.

Few people would deliberately waste their valuable vacation time, even if their goal was to do nothing. And yet, many people travel through the time of their lives without a destination, without a plan, without a purpose. With an efficient planning, we significantly increase the value of our journey life.
