Application of evolutionary Algorithms to power dispatch Problem

Abstract

In the competitive environment power industries need efficient newlineand effective tools to ensure that the electrical energy of the desired quality newlinecan be provided at the lowest cost This environment usually form highly newlineconstrained optimization problems like economic dispatch of real power and newlineenvironmental economic dispatch newlineEconomic Dispatch ED is defined as the process of allocating newlinegeneration levels to the generating units in the mix so that the system load newlinemay be supplied entirely and most economically The realistic ED problems newlineare modeled with inclusion of valve point effect and multiple fuels which newlinelead the basic convex ED problem into non convex ED problem Further the newlineincreasing public awareness about the environmental pollution caused by newlinefossil fuelled power plants stressed the power industries to limit the pollutions newlinethrough remodeling of basic ED It has led to the Environmental Economic newlineDispatch EED problem formation with multiple objectives like cost and newlineEmission newline newline
