Abstract

Microgrid is a novel small-scale system of the centralized electricity for a small-scale community such as villages and commercial area. Microgrid consists of micro-sources like distribution generator, solar and wind units. A microgrid is consummate specific purposes like reliability, cost reduction, emission reduction, efficiency improvement, use of renewable sources and continuous energy source. In the microgrid, the Energy Management System is having a problem of Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) and Combined Economic Emission Dispatch (CEED) and it is optimized by meta-heuristic techniques. The key objective of this paper is to solve the Combined Economic Emission Dispatch (CEED) problem to obtain optimal system cost. The CEED is the procedure to scheduling the generating units within their bounds together with minimizing the fuel cost and emission values. The newly introduced Interior Search Algorithm (ISA) is applied for the solution of ELD and CEED problem. The minimization of total cost and total emission is obtained for four different scenarios like all sources included all sources without solar energy, all sources without wind energy and all sources without solar and wind energy. In both scenarios, the result shows the comparison of ISA with the Reduced Gradient Method (RGM), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) technique and Cuckoo Search Algorithm (CSA) for the two different cases which are ELD without emission and CEED with emission. The results are calculated for different Power Demand of 24 h. The results obtained to ISA give comparatively better cost reduction as compared with RGM, ACO and CSA which shows the effectiveness of the given algorithm.
