Economic Load Dispatch by Grey Wolf Optimization

Author Name : Rajat Rana, Er. Ankush Sharma

Economic Load Dispatch aims at distributingthe load demand between various generation stations in a system such that the total cost of generation is minimum. This is of vital importance since it not only reduces the operation cost of the generation utility but also helps in conserving fast dwindling energy resources. Modern day power systems are large interconnected systems with a large number of generator units each having its own cost curve.In this paper an effective and reliable Grey Wolf Optimization (GWO) technique is proposed for the economic load dispatch problem.
