HYBRID HONEY BEE MATING OPTIMIZATION AND FUZZY MECHANISM FOR WIND POWER EFFECT OVER UNIT COMMITMENT GENERATING

Abstract- In this paper, Honey Bee Mating Optimization (HBMO) with Fuzzy Mechanism (FM) technique is proposed to solve the Unit Commitment (UC) problem between thermal generating units with wind impact an electricity market to minimize total cost. Actually, the wind energy is one of the renewable energies which can be used in power systems. This issue is used in this paper to achieved a real system considered with various generator and wind constraints in power systems. To demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm a system with ten thermal and wind units with various condition is simulated. The results and numerical experiments are compared with PSO, GA and λ-iteration to understand the wind generator capacity in production cost analysis and to provide valuable information for both operational and planning problems.
