Description:
In order to solve the problem of urban express delivery under carbon emission policies, we adopt an improved carbon emission quantitative method, which is based on actual speed data from road network in Guangzhou. Then, we develop an urban express delivery model aiming at minimizing the total cost of the delivery and reducing carbon emission, and use the hybrid algorithm GATS to solve the problem. A numerical example is given to verify the validity of both the model and the solution algorithm, and we also conduct a sensitivity analysis on carbon tax. This study can provide technical supports for urban express enterprise in reducing total costs and carbon emissions.
