چکیده
— In this paper, comparative study of two methods, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to solve Economic dispatch problem in power systems. The feasibility of both the methods is demonstrated for a six-generator system and a fifteengenerator system. The results from the experiments show that the PSO method gives a better quality solution to the Economic Dispatch problem than the Genetic Algorithm technique.
