Economic Load Dispatch ELD is a subproblem of the Optimal newlinePower Flow OPF which forms a part of Modern Energy Management newlineSystem EMS functions and is used to determine the optimal power output of newlinegenerating units with an objective of minimizing the fuel cost To solve newlineeffectively the Economic Dispatch problem requires the incremental cost newlinecurves to be of monotonically increasing in nature newlineThe classical Lambda iteration method is the basis for many ELD newlineproblems Many other methods such as Lagrangier and Dynamic newlineprogramming have also been applied in ELD problems However all these newlinemethods are based on the assumption of continuity and differentiability of newlinecost functions newline newline%%%Reference p.130-141
