Economic Dispatch Integrated Wind Power Using Coyote Optimization Algorithm

Fossil fuels used in power system cause air pollution and global warming because of releasing greenhouse gases. Nowadays, renewable energy especially wind power has more widespread in power generation due to ecological concerns and increasing fuel prices. Therefore, it is presented the Economic Dispatch integrated wind power approach in this paper. However, wind power is stochastic because wind speed is uncertain in nature. Therefore Weibull Probability Density Function (PDF) and Incomplete Gamma Function (IGF) are used to estimating and modelling wind power. To solve the problem effectively, Coyote Optimization Algorithm (COA) is implemented to the problem and it was tested on various power system consisting thermal generator and wind power generator. Simulation results generated by COA are compared with other heuristic algorithm such as GA and PSO. It can be clearly seen that COA produces better results than GA and PSO.
