Big-M based MIQP Method for Economic Dispatch with Disjoint Prohibited Zones

Abstract

This paper presents a novel big-M based mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) method to solve economic load dispatch problem with disjoint prohibited zones. By adding artificial 0-1 binary variables for each prohibited operating zone of generators and employing a binary coding scheme, disjoint feasible regions are represented by complementary linear constraints. Compared to existing MIQP method, the proposed method can achieve global optimal solution with much reduced problem complexity.
