Energies, Vol. 14, Pages 5919: Modeling and Optimization of Wind Turbines in Wind Farms for Solving Multi-Objective Reactive Power Dispatch Using a New Hybrid Scheme (Energies)

Reactive Power Dispatch is one of the main problems in energy systems, particularly for the power industry, and a multi-objective framework should be proposed to solve it. In this study, we present a multi-objective framework for the optimization of wind turbines in wind farms. We investigate a new combined optimization method with Chaotic Local Search, Fuzzy Interactive Honey Bee Mating Optimization, Data-Sharing technique and Modified Gray Code for discrete variables. We use the proposed model to select optimal energy system parameters. The optimization process is based on simultaneous optimization of three functions. Finally, we improve a new method based on Pareto-optimal solutions to select the best one among all candidate solutions. The presented model and methodology are validated on energy systems with wind turbines. The evaluated efficiency is compared with the real system.
