In some studies multiple objectives related to production efficiency have been considered simultaneously. However studies that consider energy consumption and environmental impacts are very rare in a multi-objective setting. In this work we studied two contradictory objectives namely total flowtime and total energy consumption (TEC) in a green permutation flowshop environment in which the machines can be operated at varying speed levels corresponding to different energy consumption values. A bi-objective mixed-integer programming model formulation was developed for the problem using a speed-scaling framework. To address the conflicting objectives of minimizing TEC and total flowtime the augmented epsilon-constraint approach was employed to obtain Pareto-optimal solutions. We obtained near approximations for the Pareto-optimal frontiers of small-scale problems using a very small epsilon level. Furthermore the mathematical model was run with a time limit to find sets of non-dominated solutions for large instances. As the problem was NP-hard two effective multi-objective iterated greedy algorithms and a multi-objective variable block insertion heuristic were also proposed for the problem as well as a novel construction heuristic for initial solution generation. The performance of the developed heuristic algorithms was assessed on well-known benchmark problems in terms of various quality measures. Initially the performance of the algorithms was evaluated on small-scale instances using Pareto-optimal solutions. Then it was shown that the developed algorithms are tremendously effective for solving large instances in comparison to time-limited model. © 2020 Elsevier B.V.
