A multi-objective multi-population ant colony optimization for economic emission dispatch considering power system security. (English) Zbl 1446.90037
Summary: With increasing concern about global warming and haze, environmental issue has drawn more attention in daily optimization operation of electric power systems. Economic emission dispatch (EED), which aims at reducing the pollution by power generation, has been proposed as a multi-objective, non-convex and non-linear optimization problem. In a practical power system, the problem of EED becomes more complex due to conflict between the objectives of economy and emission, valve-point effect, prohibited operation zones of generating units, and security constraints of transmission networks. To solve this complex problem, an algorithm of a multi-objective multi-population ant colony optimization for continuous domain (MMACO\(\_\)R) is proposed. MMACO\(\_\)R reconstructs the pheromone structure of ant colony to extend the original single objective method to multi-objective area. Furthermore, to enhance the searching ability and overcome premature convergence, multi-population ant colony is also proposed, which contains ant populations with different searching scope and speed. In addition, a Gaussian function based niche search method is proposed to enhance distribution and accuracy of solutions on the Pareto optimal front. To verify the performance of MMACO\(\_\)R in different multi-objective problems, benchmark tests have been conducted. Finally, the proposed algorithm is applied to solve EED based on a six-unit system, a ten-unit system and a standard IEEE 30-bus system. Simulation results demonstrate that MMACO\(\_\)R is effective in solving economic emission dispatch in practical power systems.
