This paper develops an efficient and clear insight view about the application of various PSO algorithms to the economic load dispatch problem with emission restrictions as the constraint. Solution acceleration techniques in the algorithm which enhance the speed and robustness of the algorithm are developed. The power and usefulness of the algorithm is demonstrated through its application to a t...

We study the impact of capturing spatiotemporal correlations between multiple wind supply points on economic dispatch procedures. Using a simple dispatch model, we first show analytically that over/underestimation of correlation leads to positive and negative biases of dispatch cost, respectively. A rigorous, large-scale computational study for the State of Illinois transmission grid with real ...

This paper proposes a novel reactive power dispatch model that takes into account both the technical and economical aspects associated with reactive power dispatch in the context of the new operating paradigms in competitive electricity markets. The main objective of the proposed model is to minimize the total amount of dollars paid by the system operator to the generators for providing the req...

The energy dispatch problem is a fundamental research issue in power distribution networks. With the growing complexity and dimensions of current distribution networks, there is an increasing need for intelligent and scalable mechanisms to facilitate energy dispatch in these networks. To this end, in this paper, we propose a multi-agent coalition formation-based energy dispatch mechanism. This ...

Objectives: Emergencymedical services (EMS) programs, which provide an alternative to traditional EMS dispatch or transport to the emergency department (ED), are becoming widely implemented. This scoping review identified and catalogued all outcomes used to measure such alternative EMS programs. Data Source: Broad systematized bibliographic and grey literature searches were conducted.

This paper presents the solution of environmental/ economic dispatch (EED) problem by using a multiobjective bees algorithm (MBA) with clustering technique. EED problem is to minimize simultaneously the total fuel cost and environmental pollution of generation while satisfying various constrains. The MBA is modified from Bees Algorithm in order to solve EED problem through compromised fuzzy and...

This paper presents a novel architecture of an indigenously developed system in Trinidad and Tobago for Economic Generation and Load Dispatch and its successful implementation. Typical local practices and policy regulations for power industry are discussed along with the power generation and load profiles. The developed system ix-GEMS has different components and several features to assist the ...

Economic load dispatch is one of the optimization problems in power systems. This paper presents an improved genetic algorithm for economic load dispatch with valve-point loadings. New crossover and mutation operations are introduced. The solutions of the economic load dispatch with valve-point loadings under three cases are solved by the improved genetic algorithm. Test results are,given and c...
