The bi-objective GVRP states for the problem of finding routes for vehicles to serve a set of customers while minimizing the total traveled distance and the co$ _{2}$ emissions. We review emission factors and techniques employed to estimate co$ _{2}$ emissions and integrate them into the GVRP definition and model. We apply the NSGA-II evolutionary algorithm to solve GVRP benchmarks and perform statistical analysis to evaluate and validate the obtained results. The results show that the algorithm obtain good results and prove the explicit interest grant to emission minimization objective.}, identifier = {06095284}, }
