Stochastic generation, i.e. electrical power production by an uncontrolled primary energy source, is expected to play an important role in future power systems. A new power system structure is created due to the largescale implementation of this small-scale, distributed, nondispatchable generation; the ’horizontally operated’ system. Modelling methodologies that can deal with the operational un...

The coming interaction between a growing electrified vehicle fleet and the desired growth in renewable energy provides new insights into the economic dispatch (ED) problem. This paper presents an economic dispatch model that considers electric vehicle charging, battery exchange stations, and wind farms. This ED model is a high-dimensional, non-linear, and stochastic problem and its solution req...

Abstract: This paper considers the contribution of independent owners (IOs) operating within microgrids (MGs) toward green power generation in deregulated energy markets. An optimization scheme is introduced for sizing distributed renewable generation (DRG) and a distributed energy storage system (DESS) based on a novel energy management system (EMS) that accounts for demand response (DR), DESS...

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...

The work described in this report was performed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and funded by the Office of the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy, U.S. Department of Energy (EERE DOE). This project is a joint project with the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. With the anticipated rapid growth of variable generation such as wind and solar power, there is increasing i...

This paper presents solution of optimal power flow (OPF) problem of electrical power system via a genetic algorithm of real type. The objective is to minimize the total fuel cost of generation and environmental pollution caused by fossil based thermal generating units and also maintain an acceptable system performance in terms of limits on generator real and reactive power outputs, bus voltages...

This paper introduces the severity of load (SOL) index technique for finding the optimal location of facts devices to achieve the optimal power flow. Objective function in the OPF, that is to be minimised, are overall cost functions which includes the total active power generation cost function. Among various controllers TCPST is considered and optimal location facts device is determined for im...

optimal reactive power dispatch (orpd) is a multi-variable problem with nonlinear constraints and continuous/discrete decision variables. due to the stochastic behavior of loads, the orpd requires a probabilistic mathematical model. in this paper, monte carlo simulation (mcs) is used for modeling of load uncertainties in the orpd problem. the problem is formulated as a nonlinear constrained mul...

Economic load dispatch (ELD) is a non-linear optimization problem for determining the power shared among the generating units to satisfy the generation limit constraints of each unit and minimizing the cost of power production. In this paper, we present a new hybrid algorithm by combing the standard backtracking search optimization algorithm (BSA) and the random wake with direction exploitation...

In this paper, the cost of generation and system transmission losses have been considered as objectives for optimization. The multiobjective optimal power dispatch (MOPD) problem is formulated using weighting method and a number of noninferior solutions are generated in 2D space by varying weights for IEEE 5, 14 and 30 bus systems – manually using GA technique, by using GA toolbox of MATLAB R20...
