During the next 12 months, the amounts of electric power needed (in thousands of kwh) are listed in the file P08_33.xlsx. This power can be supplied using four generators. The generating capacity (in thousands of kwh), the operating cost, the startup cost, and the shutdown cost (all costs in thousands of dollars) are also listed in the file P08_33.xlsx. At the beginning of month 1, generators 1 and 2 are in operation. At the end of each month, we can either shut down an operating generator or start up a shutdown generator. How can we minimize the cost of meeting demand for power during the next 12 months?
