Abstract
In the present paper, the Optimization Without Penalty-based Optimization by Morphological Filter algorithm (OWP-based OMF) has been proposed to find the optimal solution for the Combined Economic and Emission Dispatch (CEED) problem. The objective function of the CEED problem is to minimize fuel cost and emission simultaneously while satisfying the load demand, equality and inequality constraints. The evaluation of OWP-based OMF performances is carried out on three test systems with 6, 10 and 40 generating units, with different constraints and various costs. The present paper shows that OWP-based OMF gives an accurate and effective solution of the CEED problem and outperforms the other tested algorithms.
