Fuel constrained dynamic economic dispatch with demand side management

Abstract: Owing to slowly reduction of fossil fuel, the cost-effective use of available fuel for electric power generation has turn out to be a very important concern of electric power utilities. Thermal power plants have to operate within their fuel confines and contractual constraints. This work recommends social group entropy optimization (SGEO) technique to solve fuel constrained dynamic economic dispatch (FCDED) with demand side management (DSM) integrating renewable energy sources and pumped hydro storage plant. Here the dynamic economic dispatch (DED) problem is solved with and without fuel constrained. The effectiveness of the recommended technique is revealed on two test systems. Simulation results of two test systems have been compared with those acquired from self-organizing hierarchical particle swarm optimizer with time-varying acceleration coefficients (HPSO-TVAC), fast convergence evolutionary programming (FCEP) and differential evolution (DE). Test results show that fuel consumption can be sufficiently controlled for fulfilling constraints imposed by suppliers. It has been observed from the comparison that the suggested SGEO has the capability to confer with superior-quality solution.
