Abstract

Opposition-based modified differential evolution algorithm (OMDE) is proposed for solving power System economic load dispatch in this paper. This algorithm integrates the opposition-based learning operation with the crossover operation to enhance the convergence of the algorithm and to prevent the algorithm from being trapped into the local optimum effectively. Besides, we employed a new strategy to dynamic adjust mutation rate (MR) and crossover rate (CR), which is aimed at further improving algorithm performance. Based on 6 units and 13 units power system experiment simulations, the OMDE has demonstrated stronger convergence and stability than original differential (DE) algorithm and other improved algorithms that reported in recent literature.
