Economic Dispatch Problem Using Advanced Genetic Algorithms

개선된 유전 알고리즘을 이용한 경제급전 문제해석

This paper presents a new approach on genetic algorithms to economic dispatch problem for valve point discontinuities. Proposed approach in this paper on genetic algorithms improves the performance to solve economic dispatch problem for valve point discontinuities through combination in penalty function with death penalty, generation-apart elitism, atavism and heuristic crossover. Numerical results on an actual utility system consisted of 13 thermal units show that the proposed approach is faster and robuster than classical genetic algorithm.
