Research on VRP Model Optimization of Cold Chain Logistics Under Low-Carbon Constraints.

The research in this article aims to consider low-carbon factors, through reasonable vehicle allocation and optimization of distribution routes, to achieve high satisfaction and low total cost, and to provide an optimized solution for fresh food distribution companies. In this article, cargo damage cost, energy cost, and carbon emission cost are added to the total cost, and customer satisfaction constraints based on time and quality are added, respectively, to construct a multi-vehicle cold chain VRP model under the low-carbon perspective. In order to obtain a good initial path method, a good chromosome is generated and added to the initial chromosome population according to the constraints of the vehicle type and time window, and the local elite retention strategy is combined to speed up the population convergence. Finally, taking the data of A Fresh Food Company as an example, the MATLAB software is used to realize the programming, which verifies the validity and superiority of the multi-vehicle cold chain VRP model under the low-carbon perspective.
