Power System Optimisation using Ant Lion Optimisation Technique

In many recent papers, to solve optimization problem Ant Lion Optimization(ALO) technique is used. ALO is in vogue as it is nature inspired and based on hunting mechanism of the ants. In the same manner, ALO is used in electrical engineering to solve most complex problem of load dispatch. Since the ALO technique is nature inspired, mathematical modeling of this technique finds solution to various complex engineering problems. Optimal load dispatch technique helps station controller to determine the most reliable and low cost operations. In this paper, by using ALO technique optimal load dispatch algorithm is developed and later implemented using MATLAB/Simulink.
