Different Deterministic Optimization Methods for Economic Load Dispatch, Switching Off Less Efficient Generators. Journal of Engineering and Technology for Industrial Applications, 2017. Disponível em: https://dx.doi.org/10.37885/230613478.10.37885/230613478https://rigalileo.itegam.org.br/handle/123456789/452The Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) is one of the most important optimization and operational decision tasks in power systems. This study compares various deterministic mathematical optimization methods, including Lambda Iteration, Newton’s Method, and Quadratic Programming, to solve the ELD problem. The analysis considers both the traditional methodology and a proposed approach that includes turning off less efficient generators to reduce costs and improve system efficiency.pdf.Mathematical MethodsEconomic Load DispatchThermoelectric PlantsGenerator ShutdownOptimizationCapítulo de LivroEngenharia de Produção
