This paper explores the metaheuristic Variable Neighborhood Search (VNS) to solve the static long-term power transmission network expansion planning problem that consists of finding the optimum expansion arrangement (construction of new circuits) for a horizon of defined planning. VNS is a simple and effective metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization that changes neighborhood within a local algorithm, and makes the choice of implementations that integrate intensification and/or diversification strategies during the search process. The formulation of the proposed method is presented, illustrating implementation details in the transmission network expansion planning problem using the transportation model. Results obtained in tests performed with a medium network available in literature are summarized.
