Environmental/Economic Dispatch using Genetic Algorithm and Simulated Annealing

摘要

In recent years, running of the generators at minimum cost and desired limit values has gradually increasing importance at Power systems using thermal-fueled generators. Various algorithms for solving economic dispatch problem have been found in the literature. In this study, Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA) solutions to Economic Cost Dispatch (ECD), Environmental Dispatch (ED), Environmental/Economic Dispatch (EED) have been found, by taking into account the environmental issue. A sample consisting of six thermal generators are presented. Transmission losses are included. Results taken with both methods have been compared to each other.
