title = "Dynamic versus constant storage pricing in supply Hub in Industrial Park (SHIP)",
abstract = "A Supply Hub in Industrial Park (SHIP) gains revenue from leasing space to its member enterprises in the same industrial park. How to price the storage space is one of the most important questions faced by the SHIP operator. This paper considers both dynamic and constant storage pricing strategies. Under dynamic storage pricing, price is charged based on the length of storage. A bilevel programming model is developed for determining SHIP's storage pricing under both strategies respectively. Some optimal characteristics are analyzed under constant storage pricing. A numerical study is then conducted for comparing the dynamic and constant storage pricings, and examining the influence of major parameters. The numerical results show that SHIP could achieve profit improvement through adopting the dynamic storage pricing, especially when the delivery charge of SHIP is low, or the delivery charge of PW or the holding cost rate at SHIP is high.",
