Hybrid Optimization Technique for Solving Economic Dispatch Problem: A Case Study of Nigerian Thermal Power System
Keywords:
Economic Dispatch, Particle Swarm Optimization, Bat Algorithm, Hybrid Optimization Techniques, Generation Costs.Abstract
Economic Dispatch Problem (EDP) is a power system optimization problem that is required to be solved accurately using an efficient optimization technique. Hybrid optimization solutions have provided better optimum results than either deterministic or non-deterministic optimization methods. The hybridization of both Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Bat Algorithm (BA) to for Hybrid Particle Swarm Bat Algorithm (H-PS-BA) optimization technique for solving EDP of Nigerian 21 thermal generating station power system was carried out in this work. The result of the work revealed that H-PS-BA performed better and gave the best optimal generation costs when compared to other methods such as PSO, Interior Point Method and BA.
