It is practically important to optimize the Shanghai power coal transportation system on the Yangtze River as it can effectively reduce the cost of power companies and control the rising of power price. According to the demand for power coal transportation by Shanghai Power Joint-stock Company on the Yangtze River, this paper makes suggestions for optimization of the fleet allocation of power coal transportation system by using optimization model. Then, a scheme for the fleet allocation of the transportation system on the Yangtze Rive for Shanghai power coal is made up. The result of practice shows that the scheme can effectively reduce the cost of transportation.
