Energy-aware scheduling has become a central challenge in modern manufacturing environments. As industries increasingly aim to reduce operational costs and carbon emissions, aligning production activities with electricity tariffs is increasingly important. The integration of battery energy storage system (BESS) further enhances the potential to reduce energy purchase costs; however, incorporating such systems introduces complex interdependencies between job scheduling and BESS management decisions, significantly complicating the problem structure.\\In this work, we study the problem of minimizing the energy cost of executing a set of jobs on a single machine within a fixed time horizon, where electricity prices follow a Time-of-Use (TOU) tariff. In addition, we consider the presence of a BESS that can be charged from the grid and discharged during high-price periods to reduce overall energy costs. To efficiently address this problem, we propose and analyze two matheuristic algorithm variants designed to effectively coordinate production scheduling and BESS usage decisions.
Escalating energy costs and peak power demand charges pose significant challenges to the manufacturing sector. In response, industries are increasingly adopting on-site renewable energy sources and Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESSs). However, maximizing their economic benefit requires sophisticated control strategi...
