Abstract
Dynamic economic dispatch determines the optimal scheduling of online generator outputs with predicted load demands over a certain period of time taking into consideration the ramp rate limits of the generators. This paper proposes artificial immune system based on the clonal selection principle for solving dynamic economic dispatch problem. This approach implements adaptive cloning, hyper-mutation, aging operator and tournament selection. Numerical results of a ten-unit system with nonsmooth fuel cost function have been presented to validate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The results obtained from the proposed algorithm are compared with those obtained from particle swarm optimization and evolutionary programming. From numerical results, it is found that the proposed artificial immune system based approach is able to provide better solution than particle swarm optimization and evolutionary programming in terms of minimum cost and computation time.
