this paper proposes per unit coding for combined economic emission load dispatch problem. in the proposed coding, it is possible to apply the percent effects of elements in any number and with high accuracy in objective function. in the proposed per unit coding, each function is transformed into per unit form based on its own maximum value and has a value from 0 to 1. in this paper, particle sw...

The main purpose of this research is to determine the generation quantity of each generator in a power system. In this way, not only will the electricity demanded by the system be supplied, but the cost of fuel along with the level of pollution can be minimized. Obviously, calculation of the optimal layout of power plants with the aim of minimizing fuel costs and pollutants level contributes to...

This work analyses the carbon dioxide (CO2) capture system operation within the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT) and Great Britain (GB) electric grids using a previously developed first-order hourly electricity dispatch and pricing model. The grids are compared in their 2006 configuration with the addition of coal-based CO2 capture retrofits and emissions penalties from 0 to 100 US...

the major problem of wind turbines is the great variability of wind power production. the dynamic change of the wind speed returns the quantity of the power injected to networks. therefore, wind–thermal generation scheduling problem plays a key role to implement clean power producers in a competitive environment. in deregulated power systems, the scheduling problem has various objectives than i...

in recent years, soft computing methods have generated a large research interest. the synthesis of the fuzzy logic and the evolutionary algorithms is one of these methods. a particular evolutionary algorithm (ea) is differential evolution (de). as for any ea, de algorithm also requires parameters tuning to achieve desirable performance. in this paper tuning the perturbation factor vector of de ...

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 ...

Received Mar 17, 2017 Revised Aug 7, 2017 Accepted Sep 1, 2017 This paper discusses economic load dispatch Problem is modeled with nonconvex functions. These are problem are not solvable using a convex optimization techniques. So there is a need for using a heuristic method. Among such methods Teaching and Learning Based Optimization (TLBO) is a recently known algorithm and showed promising res...

reliability investigation has always been one of the most important issues in power systems planning. the outages rate in power system reflects the fact that more attentions should be paid on reliability indices to supply consumers with uninterrupted power. using reliability indices in economic dispatch problem may lead to the system load demand with high reliability and low probability of powe...
