ResumenOptimization of energy resources is a priority issue for our society. An improper imbalance between demand and power generation can lead to inefficient use of installed capacity, waste of fuels, worse effects on the environment, and higher costs. This paper presents the preliminary results of a study of seventeen interconnected power generation plants situated in eastern Mexico. The aim of the research is to apply a linear programming model to find the system-optimal solution by minimizing operating costs for this grid of power plants. The calculations were made taking into account the actual parameters of each plant; the demand and production of energy were analyzed in four time periods of 6 h during a day. The results show the cost-optimal configuration of the current power infrastructure obtained from a simple implementation model in MATLAB® software. The contribution of this paper is to adapt a lineal progamming model for an electrical distribution network formed with different types of power generation technology. The study shows that fossil fuel plants, besides emitting greenhouse gases that affect human health and the environment, incur maintenance expenses even without operation. The results are a helpful instrument for decision-making regarding the rational use of available installed capacity.es_ES
