Abstract

As the integration of wind power generation increases in power system, its coordination with other conventional sources of generation possesses both technical and economic challenges to the reliable operation of power system.Therefore, development of improved and faster economic dispatch is imperative to effectively integrate wind power reliably into power system. In this paper, Differential Evolution (DE) is utilized to coordinate the wind –thermal generation dispatch and to minimize the total production cost in the economic dispatch considering generator ramp-rate and valve point effect of thermal unit. Ten thermal units system incorporating one wind power plant was utilized for numerical simulation. Different simulation scenarios with and without wind power production were simulated and the results shows the effect of wind power generation in reducing total production cost.
