Abstract

A practical power system network is highly dynamic, non-convex and nonlinear in nature subjected to various discrete and continuous variable constraints. Over the last few decades, several computational techniques, both traditional and nature inspired have been developed to solve the practical dynamic dispatch problem. A large variety of nature-inspired computational (NIC) techniques have been proposed to solve the power dispatch problem owing to their excellent performance, simple constraint handling mechanism and veracity to handle all kinds of functions. Unlike NIC techniques, the traditional methods suffer from convexity, continuity assumptions and may not always be attractive options to solve practical optimization problems of different complexities. In this paper, a review of a large variety of NIC techniques applied to solve the dynamic dispatch problem over the last decade has been summarized.
