 Advanced three-stage pseudo-inspired weight-improved crazy particle swarm optimization for unit commitment problemAnup Shukla and S.N. Singh Energy, 2016, vol. 96, issue C, 23-36 Abstract: This paper proposes an advanced three-stage approach to solve the unit commitment problem. The proposed approach utilizes three different stages to get the optimum solution. In the first stage, a primitive structure of all units is obtained on the basis of predefined priority. In the second stage, a weight-improved crazy particle swarm optimization considering a pseudo-inspired algorithm has been proposed for economic scheduling of operating units. Finally, in the third stage, extra reserve and total operating cost are minimized using solution restructuring process. In addition, problem formulation includes multi-fuel options, prohibited operating zones and nonlinearities like valve point loading effects. The effectiveness of proposed approach is tested on various systems including IEEE 118-bus system and its performance is compared with the existing methods with the help of simulation results.
