Application of an evolutionary algorithmto simulation of the co2 emission permits marketwith purchase prices

This article describes the problem of the CO2 emission permits market and introduces several important changes to the standard model, in particular a new goal function, transactions with price negotiations between regions and - as a consequence of introducing prices for permits – the possibility of investigating the influence of purchase/sale prices on the market. An additional novelty is the method of simulating such a market, which is based on a specialized evolutionary algorithm (EA).
