This paper presents a new hybrid algorithm based on the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and the Shuffle Frog Leaping algorithms (SFLA) for solving the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) in power systems. In consequence of economical issues and increasing of the social welfare, the OPF problem is turning...

This paper presents an efficient and reliable evolutionary-based approach to solve the Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem by considering the emission issue. The OPF problem has been widely used in power system operation and planning for determining electricity prices. Therefore, the conventional...
