This paper presents a multi-objective optimization framework for the environmental economic dispatch problem in microgrids.

Abstract

This paper presents a multi-objective optimization framework for the environmental economic dispatch problem in microgrids. Besides classic constraints, also prohibited operating zones and ramp-rate limits of the generators are here considered. Pareto-optimal solutions are generated through the NSGA-II algorithm with customized constraint handling. The optimal solution is selected with TOPSIS. Simulations carried out on a prototype microgrid showed the eectiveness of the proposed framework in handling scenarios with Pareto fronts having up to four discontinuities.
