| Abstract | ||||
| Multi-area economic dispatch (MAED) deals with the optimal dispatch of multiple areas. MAED with tie line constraints, transmission losses, multiple fuel option and valve point effects is considered as a large scale non-linear optimization problem. An accurate optimization method to solve this problem is of great interest. However the conventional particle swarm optimization (PSO) has been applied to solve many optimization problems with success, it suffers from some drawbacks. Therefore, chaotic PSO (CPSO) has been used to treat these drawbacks. Choosing the parameters of CPSO has a great effect on its performance. So, a hybrid CPSO and genetic algorithm (HCPSOGA) method is employed in this paper to solve this problem. The hybrid method is derived by combining CPSO and GA where GA is used to optimize the parameters of CPSO. To show the effectiveness of the hybrid method, two test systems are used. The results show the superiority of the hybrid method over some published methods based on same test systems. | ||||
