This paper proposes a differential evolution algorithm with improved crossover operation (ICRDE) to deal with combined heat and power dynamic economic dispatch (CHPDED) problems with wind power. First, the improved crossover operation is used to maintain the population diversity by using original individuals, first mutated individuals, and second mutated individuals. Second, the scaling factor and weighted factor are incorporated into the mutation operation to improve the convergence efficiency of the algorithm. Third, adaptive control parameters are introduced to balance local exploitation and global exploration. Moreover, after being updated by the mutation and crossover operation of ICRDE at each generation, the solutions of ICRDE will be further amended using a constraint handling method, which improves the chance of acquiring feasible solutions. Experimental results demonstrate that ICRDE has strong global optimization ability and surpasses the compared algorithms for the CEC2017 benchmark functions, the combined heat and power economic dispatch problems, and the CHPDED problem with and without wind power.
