This paper presents an efficient genetic algorithm for solving non-convex optimal power flow (OPF) problems with bus voltage constraints for practical application. In this method, the individual is the binary-coded representation that contains a mixture of continuous and discrete control variables, and crossover and mutation schemes are proposed to deal with continuous/discrete control variables, respectively. The objective of OPF is defined that not only to minimize total generation cost but also to improve the bus voltage profile.. The proposed method is demonstrated for a IEEE 30-bus four generator ystem, and it is compared with conventional method.The experimental results show that the GA OPF method is superior to the conventional.
