Abstract

This paper proposes an application of Differential Evolution Technique(DE) for solving short- term scheduling problem.Generally Short-term hydrothermal scheduling involves the hour by hour scheduling of all generation on a system to achieve minimum production cost.A set of starting conditions is given and the optimal hourly schedule that minimizes the desired objective,while meeting hydraulic and steam constraints is sought and solved using Differential Evolution. . The results are examined to validated the effectiveness of the algorithm in comparision with other Meta heuristic algorithms like GA, GS, IFEP, SA and PSO.
