Abstract
AbstractThis paper proposes an improved version of the Hunter‐prey optimization (HPO) method to enhance its search capabilities for solving the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem, which includes FACTS devices and wind power energy integration. The new algorithm is inspired by the behavior of predator and prey animals, such as lions, wolves, leopards, stags, and gazelles. The primary contribution of this study is to address the tendency of the original HPO approach to get trapped in local optima, by proposing an enhanced Hunter‐prey optimization (EHPO) approach that improves both the exploration and exploitation phases. This is achieved through a random mutation for exploration and an adaptive process for exploitation, which balances the transition between the two phases. The performance of the EHPO algorithm is compared with other optimization algorithms, and subsequently, it is used to solve the OPF problem incorporating FACTS devices and wind power. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm. In conclusion, this study successfully enhances the EHPO algorithm to provide better accuracy and faster convergence in finding optimal solutions for complex real‐world problems.
