Over the last few decades, an impressive number of methods have been used to solve the Economic
Dispatch Problem (EDP) that considers such generator characteristics as prohibited operating zones,
multiple fuel options and valve-point effects. In relatively recent times, two algorithms, namely Particle
Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) have been introduced and have shown superior
performance. In this paper, using four widely used test systems with non-smooth cost functions; an attempt
is made to compare the performance of PSO and DE on this type of problem. The simulation results show
that DE is the better algorithm, outperforming PSO and other algorithms in the literature both in terms of
quality of solution and robustness.

Abstract
Over the last few decades, an impressive number of methods have been used to solve the Economic Dispatch Problem (EDP) that considers such generator characteristics as prohibited operating zones, multiple fuel options and valve-point effects. In relatively recent times, two algorithms, namely Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and Differential Evolution (DE) have been introduced and have shown superior performance. In this paper, using four widely used test systems with non-smooth cost functions; an attempt is made to compare the performance of PSO and DE on this type of problem. The simulation results show that DE is the better algorithm, outperforming PSO and other algorithms in the literature both in terms of quality of solution and robustness.
