The Asset Liability Management problem of a nuclear operator : a numerical stochastic optimization approach

We numerically study an Asset Liability Management problem linked to the decommissioning of French nuclear power plants. We link the risk aversion of practitioners to an optimization problem. Using different price models we show that the optimal solution is linked to a de-risking management strategy similar to a concave strategy and we propose an effective heuristic to simulate the underlying optimal strategy. Besides we show that the strategy is stable with respect to the main parameters involved in the liability problem.
