background: several reservoir systems have been constructed for hydropower generation around the world. hydropower offers an economical source of electricity with reduce carbon emissions. therefore, it is such a clean and renewable source of energy. reservoirs that generate hydropower are typically operated with the goal of maximizing energy revenue. yet, reservoir systems are inefficiently ope...

This paper present a new computationally efficient improved stochastic algorithm for solving multi-area DC Optimal Power Flow (DC-OPF) in interconnected power systems. This algorithm is based on the combined application of Fuzzy Logic strategy incorporated in Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm, hence termed as Fuzzy PSO (FPSO). Multi-area DC-OPF calculations determine optimum generatio...
