Abstract: In this paper, an enhanced version of the emperor penguin optimization algorithm is proposed for solving dynamic economic dispatch (DED) problem incorporating renewable energy sources and microgrid. Dynamic economic load dispatch optimally shares the power on an hourly basis for a day among the committed generating units to satisfy the feasible load demand. Emission of pollutants from the combustion fossil fuel and gradual depletion of fossil fuel encourages the usage of renewable energy sources. Implementation of renewable energy sources with the reinforcement of green energy transforms the fossil fuel-based plant into a hybrid generating plant. The increase in power production with the increase in electricity demand implicates challenges for economical operation. The proposed algorithm is applied to the DED problem for fossil fuel based and renewable energy system to find economic schedule of generated power among the committed generating units. The proposed optimization algorithm is inspired by the huddling behavior of the emperor penguin. The exploration strategy is enhanced by adapting oppositional based learning. Chaotic mapping is used to maintain a proper balance between exploration and exploitation in the entire search space, which minimizes the cost of generation in the power system.
