About this document

Greenhouse Gas Mitigation in VRP by Felipe Rodríguez Rojas is a document available to read on EtoBox.

This document discusses mitigating greenhouse gas emissions in vehicle routing problems that involve backhauling. The authors analyze problems from the literature involving up to 100 customers using a scatter search algorithm. Their results show that distance traveled and transportation costs increase as required energy decreases, but fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions also decrease. In some cases, the number of vehicles remains the same or increases to achieve shorter, better distributed routes.
