A mixed integer quadratic programming formulation for the economic dispatch of generators with prohibited operating zones
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an optimization-based approach is proposed using a mixed integer quadratic programming model for the economic dispatch of electrical power generators with prohibited zones of operation. The main advantage of the proposed approach is its capability to solve case studies from the literature to global optimality quickly and without any targeting of solution procedures.

متن کاملAdaptive Differential Evolution Approach for Constrained Economic Power Dispatch with Prohibited Operating Zones
Economic power dispatch (EPD) is one of the main tools for optimal operation and planning of modern power systems. To solve effectively the EPD problem, most of the conventional calculus methods rely on the assumption that the fuel cost characteristic of a generating unit is a continuous and convex function, resulting in inaccurate dispatch. This paper presents the design and application of eff...
