This manuscript proposes a novel metaheuristic, which is an amalgamation of the quantum
concept and the gravitational search particle swarm optimization technique. The inclusion of …

A differential evolution using migrated variables is proposed to deal with the combined heat
and power dynamic economic dispatch problems in this paper. The new differential …

The dynamic economic emission dispatch (DEED) of electric power generation is a multi-
objective mathematical optimization problem with two objective functions. The first objective …

Microgrids are subsystems of the distribution grid which comprises generation capacities,
storage devices and flexible loads, operating as a single controllable system either …

Reliable and inexpensive electricity provision is one of the significant research objectives
since decades. Various Economic Dispatch (ED) methods have been developed in order to …

In this paper, an energy dispatch model that satisfies the load demand, taking into account
the intermittent nature of the solar and wind energy sources and variations in demand, is …

Energy efficiency improvement of industrial systems through the application of demand side
management (DSM) techniques is discussed. In particular, a unified classification of …

As an important component of Smart Grid, advanced plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) are
drawing much more attention because of their high energy efficiency, low carbon and noise …

Renewable energy sources (RES) are seen as potential alternative energy sources for rural
communities to meet energy demand where electricity supply is inaccessible. Wind and …

The dynamic economic emission dispatch (DEED) problem taking into consideration valve-
point effects is a complicated non-linear constrained multi-objective optimization problem …
