ISSN 2277 – 5064 | © 2012 Bonfring Abstract--The dispatch of electric load is one of the key functions in electrical power system operation, management and planning. The key intention of economic load dispatch is to reduce the total production cost of the generating system and at the same time the necessary equality and inequality constraints should also be fulfilled. In the present time, energ...

Particle swarm optimization (PSO ) is an effective & reliable evolutionary based approach .Due to its higher quality solution including mathematical simplicity, fast convergence & robustness it has become popular for many optimization problems. There are various field of power system in which PSO is successfully applied. Economic Load Dispatch(ELD) is one of important tasks which provide an eco...

Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) is an important optimization task in power system operation for allocating generation among the committed units such that the constraints imposed are satisfied and the operating cost is minimized. This paper presents an application of Particle swarm optimization (PSO) technique to solve non-liner, non-convex ELD problem for the determination of the global or near gl...

This paper proposes a new multi-objective based adaptive immune algorithm for solving the combined economic and environmental dispatch problem. Economic dispatch problem deals with the minimization of fuel cost while satisfying a set of equality and inequality constraints. The fossil fuel plants pollute the environment by emitting some toxic gases. Therefore, the traditional minimization of cos...

This paper presents the use of the improved harmony search method for solving economic load dispatch problems. The harmony search method mimics a jazz improvisation process by musicians in order to seek a fantastic state of harmony. To assess the searching performance of the proposed method, a six-unit thermal generating system acquired from the standard IEEE 30-bus test system was challenged. ...

In the power system operations, the economic load dispatch of thermal generating system is among one of the most important problems.Recent global inclination towards the utilization of more and more renewable energy makes this problem important than ever. In this work, the economic dispatch of thermal and PV system with battery storage is carried out. Here Unit Commitment (UC) using Dynamic Pro...

In this paper we have proposed a control technique for the automatic generation control of multi generating power unit of the interconnected power system. This technique established the relationship between the economic load dispatch and load forecasting mechanism to the classical concepts of the load frequency control (LFC). The LFC system monitors to keep the power system frequency at nominal...
