100 Modified Adaptive Tabu Search Algorithms for Static Economic Load Dispatch Available to Purchase

This paper presents an application of the modified adaptive tabu search algorithms (mATS) to a static constrained economic load dispatch (ELD) problem. The proposed algorithms with adaptive neighbourhood easily handles different constraints like transmission losses, ramp rate limits and also prohibited operating zones. Simulation was performed over six units system and comparisons are performed with other existing relevant approaches. The findings affirmed the robustness and proficiency of the proposed algorithms over other existing techniques.
