Abstract

Optimal active-reactive power dispatch problems (OARPD) are considered large scale optimization problems with a high nonlinear complexity. Usually, in OARPD the objective is to minimize the cost of the system operation. In 2018, the IEEE PES committee proposed a competition, the 'Operational planning of sustainable power systems', in which a test bed relating the OARPD and a renewable energy generation challenge within a smart grid was proposed. In this work we consider three test scenarios proposed in that competition. Specifically, we present a hybrid meta-heuristic optimization approach applied to the OARPD, the Canonical Differential Evolutionary Particle Swarm Optimization (C-DEEPSO), to tackle these test scenarios. Comparative results with other algorithms such as CMA-ES, EPSO, and CEEPSO indicate that C-DEEPSO shows a competitive performance when solving the OARPD problems.
