Abstract: This paper presents an application of an improved Genetic Algorithm for the unit
commitment (UC) problem. The optimization is based on three different objective
functions which are cost, reliability and an appropriate combination of them. This
method is implemented on IEEE-RTS test system. Three different amount of required
spinning reserve is used in optimization mode as a constraint. The results show that the
proposed GA in C & R mode optimization is an effective method to solve the UC
problem and also considering the reliability makes results more practical to use in
restructured power system
