Aiming to the severe wind power curtailment issue, the characteristics of interactive load are studied upon the traditional day-ahead dispatch model to mitigate the influence of wind power fluctuation. A multi-objective optimal dispatch model with the minimum operating cost and power losses is built. Optimal power flow distribution is available when both generation and demand side participate in the resource allocation. The quantum particle swarm optimization (QPSO) algorithm is applied to convert multi-objective optimization problem into single objective optimization problem.

The economic load dispatch problem is a non-linear constrained multi-objective optimization problem. The proposed MOPSO approach handles the problem as a multi-objective problem with competing and non-commensurable fuel cost, emission and system loss objectives and has a diversity-preserving mechanism using an external memory (call “repository”) and a geographically-based approach to find widely different Pareto-optimal solutions. In addition, fuzzy set theory is employed to extract the best compromise solution. Several optimization runs of the proposed MOPSO approach were carried out on the standard IEEE 30-bus test system. The results revealed the capabilities of the proposed MOPSO approach to generate well-distributed Pareto-optimal non-dominated solutions of multi-objective economic load dispatch. Com- parison with Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) showed the superiority of the proposed MOPSO approach and confirmed its potential for solving multi-objective economic load dispatch.展开更多

文摘A multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) approach for multi-objective economic load dispatch problem in power system is presented in this paper. The economic load dispatch problem is a non-linear constrained multi-objective optimization problem. The proposed MOPSO approach handles the problem as a multi-objective problem with competing and non-commensurable fuel cost, emission and system loss objectives and has a diversity-preserving mechanism using an external memory (call “repository”) and a geographically-based approach to find widely different Pareto-optimal solutions. In addition, fuzzy set theory is employed to extract the best compromise solution. Several optimization runs of the proposed MOPSO approach were carried out on the standard IEEE 30-bus test system. The results revealed the capabilities of the proposed MOPSO approach to generate well-distributed Pareto-optimal non-dominated solutions of multi-objective economic load dispatch. Com- parison with Multi-objective Evolutionary Algorithm (MOEA) showed the superiority of the proposed MOPSO approach and confirmed its potential for solving multi-objective economic load dispatch.

文摘The development of artificial intelligence for science has led to the emergence of learning-based research paradigms,necessitating a compelling reevaluation of the design of multi-objective optimization(MOO)methods.The new generation MOO methods should be rooted in automated learning rather than manual design.In this paper,we introduce a new automatic learning paradigm for optimizing MOO problems,and propose a multi-gradient learning to optimize(ML2O)method,which automatically learns a generator(or mappings)from multiple gradients to update directions.As a learning-based method,ML2O acquires knowledge of local landscapes by leveraging information from the current step and incorporates global experience extracted from historical iteration trajectory data.By introducing a new guarding mechanism,we propose a guarded multi-gradient learning to optimize(GML2O)method,and prove that the iterative sequence generated by GML2O converges to a Pareto stationary point.The experimental results demonstrate that our learned optimizer outperforms hand-designed competitors on training the multi-task learning neural network.
文摘The optimizationfield has grown tremendously,and new optimization techniques are developed based on statistics and evolutionary procedures.There-fore,it is necessary to identify a suitable optimization technique for a particular application.In this work,Black Widow Optimization(BWO)algorithm is intro-duced to minimize the cost functions in order to optimize the Multi-Area Economic Dispatch(MAED).The BWO is implemented for two different-scale test systems,comprising 16 and 40 units with three and four areas.The performance of BWO is compared with the available optimization techniques in the literature to demonstrate the strategy’s efficacy.Results show that the optimized cost for four areas with 16 units is found to be 7336.76$/h,whereas it is 121,589$/h for four areas with 40 units using BWO.It is also noted that optimization algo-rithms other than BWO require higher cost value.The best-optimized solution for emission is achieved at 9.2784e+06 tones/h,and it is observed that there is a considerable difference between the worst and the best values.Also,the suggested technique is implemented for large-scale test systems successfully with high precision,and rapid convergence occurs in MAED.

文摘Combined Economic and Emission Dispatch(CEED)task forms multi-objective optimization problems to be resolved to minimize emission and fuel costs.The disadvantage of the conventional method is its incapability to avoid falling in local optimal,particularly when handling nonlinear and complex systems.Metaheuristics have recently received considerable attention due to their enhanced capacity to prevent local optimal solutions in addressing all the optimization problems as a black box.Therefore,this paper focuses on the design of an improved sand cat optimization algorithm based CEED(ISCOA-CEED)technique.The ISCOA-CEED technique majorly concen-trates on reducing fuel costs and the emission of generation units.Moreover,the presented ISCOA-CEED technique transforms the equality constraints of the CEED issue into inequality constraints.Besides,the improved sand cat optimization algorithm(ISCOA)is derived from the integration of tra-ditional SCOA with the Levy Flight(LF)concept.At last,the ISCOA-CEED technique is applied to solve a series of 6 and 11 generators in the CEED issue.The experimental validation of the ISCOA-CEED technique ensured the enhanced performance of the presented ISCOA-CEED technique over other recent approaches.

文摘The correlated renewable energy farms are usually aggregated as a cluster in economic dispatch to relieve computational burden.This strategy can also achieve better performance since the precision of predicting the power generation of a cluster can be higher than those of individual farms.This paper proposes an optimal decomposition method to allocate dispatch schedules among renewable energy farms(REFs)in the cluster under existing stochastic optimization framework.The proposed model takes advantage of probabilistic characteristics of renewable generation to minimize the curtailment and ensure the feasibility of dispatch schedule of the clusters.Approximated tractable formulation and efficient solution method are the proposed to solve the proposed model.Numerical tests show that the proposed method achieves the optimal decomposition of dispatch schedule among REFs and facilitates the utilization of renewable generation.

文摘Due to the variety of devices and operating scenarios in an integrated energy system(IES),the optimal dispatch of an IES is usually complicated.An optimal dispatch method for an IES is proposed by defining the scheduling value for each device which can be different under various scenarios.First,thinking over the private and public attributes of each operating equipment,the evaluation system is established with the actual scenarios of economic,environmental and energy-savings being considered.Secondly,the economic,environmental and energy-saving benefits of each operating equipment are quantified by Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to an Ideal Solution(TOPSIS).Therefore,the scheduling value of the device is comprehensively assessed according to the specific scenario.Finally,decomposing the output of the device into direct available energy and indirect available energy,an optimal model is built with the maximum general production benefits as the objective,and is solved by MATLAB and CPLEX.The simulation results show that the evaluation system can reflect multiple values of devices.The proposed model can unify the modeling of optimal dispatch for different scenarios in the IES and can improve dispatch efficiency,while ensuring the accuracy of the results with high computation efficiency.
文摘Combined heat and power(CHP)generation is a valuable scheme for concurrent generation of electrical and thermal energies.The interdependency of power and heat productions in CHP units introduces complications and non-convexities in their modeling and optimization.This paper uses the stochastic fractal search(SFS)optimization technique to treat the highly non-linear CHP economic dispatch(CHPED)problem,where the objective is to minimize the total operation cost of both power and heat from generation units while fulfilling several operation interdependent limits and constraints.The CHPED problem has bounded feasible operation regions and many local minima.The SFS,which is a recent metaheuristic global optimization solver,outranks many current reputable solvers.Handling constraints of the CHPED is achieved by employing external penalty parameters,which penalize infeasible solution during the iterative process.To confirm the strength of this algorithm,it has been tested on two different test systems that are regularly used.The obtained outcomes are compared with former outcomes achieved by many different methods reported in literature of CHPED.The results of this work affirm that the SFS algorithm can achieve improved near-global solution and compare favorably with other commonly used global optimization techniques in terms of the quality of solution,handling of constraints and computation time.
文摘In this paper, a simple strategy based differential evolution was proposed for solving the problem of multi-objective environmental optimal power flow considering a hybrid model （Wind-Shunt-FACTS）. The DE algorithm optimized simultaneously a combined vector control based active power of wind sources and reactive power of multi STATCOM exchanged with the electrical power system to minimize fuel cost and emissions. The proposed strategy was examined and applied to the standard IEEE 30-bus with smooth cost function to solve the problem of security environmental economic dispatch considering multi distributed hybrid model based wind and STATCOM controllers. In addition, the proposed approach was validated on a large practical electrical power system 40 generating units considering valve point effect. Simulation results demonstrate that choosing the installation of multi type of FACTS devices in coordination with many distributed wind sources is a vital research area.

文摘On the power supply side,renewable energy(RE)is an important substitute to traditional energy,the effective utilization of which has become one of the major challenges in risk-constrained power system operations.This paper proposes a risk-based power dispatching strategy considering the demand response(DR)and RE utilization in the stochastic optimal scheduling of parallel manufacturing process(PMP)in industrial manufacturing enterprises(IME).First,the specific production behavior model of PMP is formulated to characterize the flexibility of power demand.Then,a two-step strategic model is proposed to comprehensively quantify multiple factors in the optimal scheduling of DR in PMP loads considering risk-based power system dispatch,thermal generators,wind power integration.Case studies are based on the modified IEEE 24-bus power system,which verify the effectiveness of the proposed strategy in optimally coordinating IME assets with generation resources for promoting the RE utilization,as well as the impacts of power transmission risk on decision performance.
