This paper presents the solution of highly complex, non-linear, multi-objective Dynamic Combined Economic Emission Dispatch (DCEED) problem. DCEED is a power system optimization problem with conflicting objectives of fuel cost and emission. DCEED includes constraints like valve point loading effect, Transmission Losses and Ramp Rate limits. Solution of DCEED problem is given by a novel Hybridized Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) with Sequential Quadratic Programming (SQP). FPA is a nature inspired population based meta-heuristic optimization technique that models its search on the flower pollination process. The non-convex nature of generation because of numerous operational, physical and dynamic constraints, makes search space highly multi model and complex. This makes DCEED a challenging as well as an attractive problem for research. The effectiveness of FPA-SQP is tested and validated by applying it on IEEE Standard 5-unit and 10-unit non-convex test system in MATLAB environment for the time interval of 24 hours. The results achieved by this algorithm show significant reduction in cost and emission as compared to other available techniques in the literature.

Recent power systems necessitate for maintaining a safe voltage stability as the number of problems such as contingencies and reactive power insufficiency are increasing. In this paper, installation and sizing of Flexible Alternating Current Transmission System (FACTS) devices have been introduced for solving the voltage stability problems under contingencies. The FACTS device to be used is Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC). Besides improving the voltage magnitude at all buses to a desired level, installation of TCSC at proper locations can minimize total transmission losses of the system. To conduct the sizing task, the newly developed Flower Pollination Algorithm (FPA) has been implemented as the engine for optimization. Through experimentation, the results proved that the proposed placement and sizing technique has successfully mitigated the voltage stability problems. In addition, the computation time for FPA’s convergence was tolerable with optimum results.

Economic emission dispatch (EED) problems are one of the most crucial problems in power systems. Growing energy demand, limited reserves of fossil fuel and global warming make this topic into the center of discussion and research. In this chapter, we will discuss the use and scope of different quantum inspired computational intelligence (QCI) methods for solving EED problems. We will evaluate each previously used QCI methods for EED problem and discuss their superiority and credibility against other methods. We will also discuss the potentiality of using other quantum inspired CI methods like quantum bat algorithm (QBA), quantum cuckoo search (QCS), and quantum teaching and learning based optimization (QTLBO) technique for further development in this area.
