Multi area multi objective dynamic economic dispatch with renewable energy and emissions

In this paper, multi area multi objective dynamic economic dispatch (MAMODED) with optimal real power dispatch in dynamic areas is considered. More accurate cubic cost function models thermal and emissions functions. The five-objective MAMODED includes thermal, renewable, tie line losses and emissions plus all the possible constraints. Uncertainties and variability of renewable energy (RE) sources are modelled using scenario based method (SBM). Modified Firefly Algorithm with Levy Flights and Derived Mutation (MFA-LF-DM) which is applied to validate the formulation resulted in better power exchange as compared to optimality condition decomposition (OCD) in terms of cost and emission reduction.
