Combined Heat and Power Dynamic Economic Dispatch incorporating pumped
hydro energy storage considering uncertainty and outage of renewable
energy sources
Abstract
Owing to increasing penetration of renewable energy sources, it is
mandatory to investigate it’s effect on the combined heat and power
dynamic economic dispatch. At the same time , adverse effect is there
due to highly intermittent nature and higher rate of outages of these
sources . This piece of work proposes squirrel search algorithm (SSA)
for solving combined heat and power dynamic economic dispatch (CHPDED)
incorporating pumped-storage-hydraulic unit captivating uncertainty and
outage of renewable energy sources. A lately developed swarm
intelligence algorithm SSA, emulates from the dynamic scavenging
behavior of squirrel. The competence of the recommended technique is
examined on a test system. Simulation outcomes of the proposed technique
is harmonized with those acquired by particle swarm optimization (PSO)
and grey wolf optimization (GWO). After comparison, a conclusion was
made presenting SSA technique conferring with good-quality solution than
other techniques.
