A new meta-heuristic for economic dispatch of integrated energy system with multi-type energy storages

Dispatch optimization of the integrated energy system with multi-type storages, as an essential issue to optimum management, is a high-dimensional complex nonlinear problem time-series constraints. To overcome problem, new meta-heuristic method presented in this paper. The proposed introduces several heuristic rules, called maximum storage utilization and embeds them into adaptive GA improve quality initial feasible solutions each iteration. In contrast existing methods, guarantees convergence optimal solution low computational cost. Simulation results indicate that provides excellent performance solving economic dispatch storages.
