Comment on ‘Differential evolution technique-based short-term economic generation scheduling of hydrothermal systems’ by K.K. Mandal, N. Chakraborty Electric Power Systems Research 78 (2008) 1972–1979

Abstract

This research has been developed with the aim of analyzing of the reported results in ‘Differential evolution technique-based short-term economic generation scheduling of hydrothermal systems’ by K.K. Mandal, N. Chakraborty Electric Power Systems Research 78 (2008) 1972–1979. Indeed, that optimization problem did not take into account the storage capacity of the reservoirs constraints and the positivity of the power generated by each hydro unit over the scheduling horizon.
