Solving Economic Dispatch Problem Using a New Hybrid PSO-ALO Algorithm

This study presents the application of a new hybrid particle swarm optimization and ant lion algorithm (Hybrid PSO-ALO) to resolve the economic dispatch problem (ED) considering the limits on generator real power output and power loss in transmission. In hybrid ALO-PSO, individuals in a new generation are created by different strategies of PSO and ALO that allows the creation of a new, richer population and superiority. The effectiveness of this hybrid approach is examined and confirmed by applying it on various test networks of 6 and 10 generators. The results demonstrate that the proposed hybrid PSO-ALO has better performance and gives a better solution compared with other heuristic algorithms in the recent literature.
