espanolLos operadores de red estan constantemente trabajando en mantener un nivel de confiabilidad apropiado en el suministro de energia y preservar la integridad de la vegetacion que crece bajo las redes aereas de distribucion de energia. Por tal razon, en este articulo se proponen e implementan diferentes alternativas para gestionar de manera optima el mantenimiento de la vegetacion. El problema se representa a traves de modelamiento matematico, en funcion de varios aspectos enmarcados en el manejo de la flora, basados en la capacidad tecnica de la empresa y las metas de confiabilidad estipuladas por los organismos gubernamentales. En la solucion del problema, se obtiene un programa de mantenimiento de la vegetacion en terminos de cuando y donde se debe realizar este, ademas de la asignacion de los grupos de trabajo destinados para las labores de poda a lo largo del sistema de distribucion. De esta manera, se minimiza el nivel de energia no servida y se optimizan los recursos financieros necesarios para este tipo de tareas. EnglishNetwork operators work constantly to maintain an appropriate level of reliability in their power supply and to preserve the integrity of the vegetation growing underneath overhead power distribution systems. Accordingly, this article proposes and adopts different approaches to optimally manage vegetation maintenance in such field. Mathematical modeling is used to represent the problem in terms of several aspects involved in vegetation management, based on the technical capacity of the utility company and the reliability goals established by governmental regulatory entities. The solution is a vegetation maintenance schedule in terms of when, where, and which crews must perform the pruning activities along the distribution network. As a result, the Non-Served Energy Level NSEL is minimized and the financial resources earmarked for this type of maintenance tasks are optimized.
