With the growing concern of energy shortage and environment pollution, the energy aware operation management problem has emerged as a hot topic in industrial engineering recently. An integrated model consisting of production scheduling, preventive maintenance (PM) planning, and energy controlling is established for the flow shops with the PM constraint and peak demand constraint. The machine’s on/off and the speed level selection are considered to save the energy consumption in this problem. To minimize the makespan and the total energy consumption simultaneously, a multi-objective algorithm founded on NSGA-II is designed to solve the model effectively. The key decision variables are coded into the chromosome, while the others are obtained heuristically using the proposed decoding method when evaluating the chromosome. Numerical experiments were conducted to validate the effectiveness and efficiency by comparing the proposed algorithm and the traditional rules in manufacturing plant. The impacts of constraints on the Pareto frontier are also shown when analyzing the tradeoff between two objectives, which can be used to explicitly assess the energy consumption.
