Abstract


This paper proposes the optimal generator allocation to solve economic dispatch (ED) problem in power system using moth flame optimizer (MFO). With this approach, the optimum power for each unit generating in the system will be searched based on the power constraints per unit and the amount of power demand. The objective function of this study is to minimize the total cost of generation. The amount of power loss is measured to determine the effectiveness of the proposed technique. The performance of the MFO technique is also compared to the evolutionary programming (EP) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) methods. Five- and thirty-bus power system networks are selected as test systems and simulated using MATLAB. Based on simulation results, MFO provides better results in regulating the optimum power generation with minimum generation cost and power loss, compared to EP and PSO.
