Then, two sets of contrasting experimentswithrandomlygenerated instancesareconducted,aimingtoshowthegoodperformance of the algorithm.The algorithm is coded inMATLABR2015b and the experiments are runon an Intel(R)Core(TM) i7-47903.60GHzprocessorwith16GBofmemoryunder theWindows7operating system. For benchmarking, the greedy insertionheuristic algorithmproposedbyChe et al. [9] is adoptedforourcontrast tests. TheTOUelectricity tariffsusedforall instancesare those implementedinShanxiProvince,China, asgiven inTable1. It canbeseenfromTable1 that theoff-peakperiod isbetweenanon-peakperiod andamid-peakperiod,whichmeans that the actual electricitypricesmeets thefirst typeofTOU electricity tariffs.Assumethat the timehorizonstartsat8:00a.m. of thefirstday. 11
