Solution to Economic Dispatch Problem Incorporating Micro Grid with Integration of Wind Energy Using Emperor Penguin Optimization Algorithm

Depletion of fossil fuel and formation of pollutants introduced the microgrid and implement the renewable energy sources to the conventional power generating units. This paper represents the implementation of emperor penguin optimization algorithm to find the optimum solution to economic dispatch of fossil fuel-based generators with ramp rate limits, prohibited operating zones, effect of steam valve and transmission losses. Also, the applied technique solves the optimum dispatch problem for microgrid considering the wind turbine as the renewable energy system. The emperor penguin optimization algorithm considers the huddling nature of emperor penguin to optimize the generation cost. The efficacy of the technique is verified for different test system with the comparison of other applied technique.
