Abstract
The energy conservation generating scheduling is a kind of important work to insist in the power system that thermal power plants dominate. In the paper, a mathematical optimization model was built aiming at reducing the fuel consumption in the thermal units load dispatch. Considering the unit operating constraints, a method for energy saving load dispatch was presented, which combines the dynamic unit commitment strategy with the harmony search algorithm. The method was applied to the scheduling problem in a regional power system. The results show that the method proposed is feasible and plays a significant role in energy conservation in the thermal power distribution.
