Environmental Economic Load Dispatch with Quadratic Fuel Cost Function Using Cuckoo Search Algorithm
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, a Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA) is proposed for solving environmental economic load dispatch (EELD) problem with quadratic fuel function. Cuckoo Search is a new meta-heuristic algorithm inspired from the obligate brood parasitism of some cuckoo species by laying their eggs in the nests of other host birds of other species for solving optimization problems with promising results. However, Cuckoo Search has not been applied to EELD problem so far. Therefore, the paper presents application of CSA to the problem. The effectiveness of the proposed method is tested on several cases of dispatch and loads. The obtained result including fuel cost, emission and computation time from CSA are compared to those from other method reported in the paper. The comparison result has indicated that the proposed CSA is a very efficient method for solving EELD problem.
