Abstract

Multi-objective energy optimization is indispensable for energy balancing and reliable operation of smart power grid (SPG). Nonetheless, multi-objective optimization is challenging due to uncertainty and multi-conflicting parameters at both the generation and demand sides. Thus, opting for a model that can solve load and distributed energy source scheduling problems is necessary. This work presents a model for operation cost and pollution emission optimization with renewable generation in the SPG. Solar photovoltaic and wind are renewable energy which have a fluctuating and uncertain nature. The proposed system uses the probability density function (PDF) to address uncertainty of renewable generation. The developed model is based on a multi-objective wind-driven optimization (MOWDO) algorithm to solve a multi-objective energy optimization problem. To validate the performance of the proposed model a multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) algorithm is used as a benchmark model. Findings reveal that MOWDO minimizes the operational cost and pollution emission by 11.91% and 6.12%, respectively. The findings demonstrate that the developed model outperforms the comparative models in accomplishing the desired goals.
