Abstract

The main objective of the dynamic economic dispatch problem is to determine the optimal schedule of output powers of all generating units to meet the load demands and losses at minimum operating cost while satisfying ramp rate and power limits. In addition, the computing time should be as soon as possible because of the scheduling interval in an hour. This paper proposed an application of the direct method with cost functions of the generator units in the quadratic form to solve the problem. In which the proposed method is simplest, applicable and having shortest computing time. To validate the proposed method was done evaluating for 6-generator units in detail and the results compared to the other methods. While to test computing time was done a simulation to the large power system, 47 generator units of Jawa-Bali System. The results state that the proposed method can work efficiently and accurately. These are in line with expectations.
