Solution to Economic Load Dispatch using Particle Swarm Optimization

2014

This paper proposes to determine the feasible optimal solution of the economic load dispatch power systems problem using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) considering various generator constraints. The objective of the proposed method is to determine the steady-state operating point which minimizes the fuel cost, while maintaining an acceptable system performance in terms of limits on generator power, line flow, prohibited operating zone and non linear cost function. Three diff erent inertia weights; a constant inertia weight CIW, a timevarying inertia weight TVIW, and global-local best inertia weight GLbestIW, are considered with the (PSO) algorithm to analyze the impact of inertia weight on the performance of PSO algorithm. The PSO algorithm is simulated for each of the method individually. It is observed that the PSO algorithm with the proposed inertia weight (GLbestIW) yields better results, both in terms of optimal solution and faster convergence.

Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) is one of an important optimization tasks which provides an economic condition for a power systems. In this paper, Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) as an effective and reliable evolutionary based approach has been proposed to solve the constraint economic load dispatch problem. The proposed method is able to determine, the output power generation for all of the power generation units, so that the total constraint cost function is minimized. In this paper, a piecewise quadratic function is used to show the fuel cost equation of each generation units, and the B-coefficient matrix is used to represent transmission losses. The feasibility of the proposed method to show the performance of this method to solve and manage a constraint problems is demonstrated in 4 power system test cases, consisting 3,6,15, and 40 generation units with neglected losses in two of the last cases. The obtained PSO results are compared with Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Quadratic Programming (QP) base approaches. These results prove that the proposed method is capable of getting higher quality solution including mathematical simplicity, fast convergence, and robustness to solve hard optimization problems.

The economic load dispatch plays a crucial role in the operation of the power grid. The unit commitment or pre-dispatch is the first problem, to satisfy the expected load and supply a specified margin of operational reserve over a specified amount of your time and second side of economic dispatch is that the online economic dispatch, whereby it's needed to distribute the load amongst offered generating units paralleled with the system in such a way.

2013 1st International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, Modelling and Simulation, 2013

Producing the energy power that meets the load demands at a minimum cost while satisfying the constraints is known as economic dispatch. Economic dispatch becomes one of the most complex problems in the planning and operation of a power system that aims to determine the optimal generation scheduling at minimum cost. For that reason many optimization researches on finding an optimal solution regarding the total cost of generation have been carried out. This paper presents the implementation of the extension of the PSO (E-PSO) system in solving the continuous nonlinear function of the cost curves of the generator. In this paper, a 6unit generation system has been applied to show the effectiveness of the E-PSO compared to the standard PSO. The results show that E-PSO is capable in solving the economic dispatch problem in term of minimizing the total cost of generation while considering the generator limits and transmission losses.
