Wind power generation effect on economic load dispatch in power system

Renewable Energy (RE) generation is getting more and more attention due to the awareness of the perseverance of environment and sustainability of resources. While Economic Load Dispatch (ELD) is a heavily researched area which aims to optimize the objective function (i.e. minimizing the total produc...
