Solving non-convex economic load dispatch problem via artificial cooperative search algorithm

作者:

Highlights:

• Non-convex economic dispatch (NCED) problems have been solved.

• Artificial cooperative search algorithm (ACS) is used to solve NCED.

• The valve-point loading effects and transmission loss are considered in the problem.

• The constraint-handling strategy is to generate and work with feasible solutions.

• The results confirmed ACS's capability in solving NCED problems well and robustly.
