Paper title: HYBRID METHOD FOR OPTIMAL POWER FLOW DETERMINATION
Author(s): MIMOUN YOUNES,
Abstract: Optimal Power Flow (OPF) is one of the main functions of Power Generation
Operation and Control. It determines the optimal settings of generating units, bus
voltage, transformer tap and shunt elements in Power System with the objective of
minimizing total production costs or losses while the system is operating within its
security limits. The aim of this paper is to propose a methodology (ABCA-mGA) that
solves OPF including active power dispatches. It is based on combining the Artificial
Bee Colony Algorithm (ABCA) to obtain a near global solution, and the microgenetic
algorithm (mGA) to determine the optimal global solution with great precision.
