Abstract

The economic power dispatch (ED) is considered a critical optimization issue in the power system and microgrid. There are several objectives through the economic load dispatch issues such as reducing the operating cost, total emission, or start-up operations. This paper presents a Chameleon swarm algorithm (CSA) for determining the optimal ED of distributed energy resources (DER) in the microgrid. The proposed technique numerically mimics and executes chameleons' behavioral processes to their quest for food, such as their action for rotating their eyes to identify and grab prey using the speed of their sticky tongues. In this study, the CSA has been applied to obtain the optimal power dispatch from DER using the photovoltaic (PV) plants, combined heat power (CHP) systems, and traditional diesel generators. The obtained results from the simulation are compared with the conventional metaheuristic algorithms which have been used in previous studies, such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), genetic algorithm (GA), and artificial bee colony (ABC). Experimentally, the proposed algorithm for solving the ED problem determined the best value of the power dispatch and high performance compared to other metaheuristics methods.
