The combined heat and power (CHP) generator not only generates electrical power but also generates heat energy in a single process, which decreases the emission level significantly. The integration of wind power into the power system will lead to an impact on the economic operation of the system as well as the bus voltage and transmission losses. In this paper, a formulation of optimal power flow (OPF) problem of a power system incorporating stochastic wind power is presented. To solve this problem, a modified version of the moth swarm algorithm (MMSA) is proposed. Three objective functions, which are the minimization of operating cost, the minimization of transmission power loss, and the voltage profile improvement, are considered in this paper. To minimize the operating cost, the direct, overestimation, and underestimation costs of wind power units are considered. Two test systems are considered to prove the effectiveness and the superiority of the proposed MMSA in comparison with other methods. The comparison with other methods proves the efficiency and the superiority of the proposed MMSA. |
