<![CDATA[This research paper uses the golden jackal optimization (GJO), a novel meta-heuristic algorithm, to address power system economic load dispatch (ELD) problems. The GJO emulates the hunting behavior of golden jackals. GJO algorithm uses the cooperative attacking behavior of golden jackals to tackle complicated optimization problems efficaciously. The objective of ELD problem is to distribute power system load requirement to the different generators with a minimum total fuel cost of generation. ELD problems are highly complex, non-linear, and non-convex optimization problems while considering constraints namely valve point loading effect (VPL) and prohibited operating zones (POZs). The proposed GJO algorithm is applied to solve complex, non-linear, and non-convex ELD problems. Six different test systems having 6, 10, 13, 40, and 140 generators with various constraints are used to validate the usefulness of the suggested GJO method. Simulation outcomes of the test system are compared with various algorithms reported in the algorithms such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), ant colony optimization (ACO), and backtracking search algorithm (BSA). Results show that the proposed GJO algorithm produces minimal fuel cost and has good convergence in solving ELD problems of power system engineering.]]>
