Abstract:
This paper presents Reinforcement Learning (RL) approaches to Economic Dispatch problem. In this
paper, formulation of Economic Dispatch as a multi stage decision making problem is carried out, then
two variants of RL algorithms are presented. A third algorithm which takes into consideration the transmission
losses is also explained. Efficiency and flexibility of the proposed algorithms are demonstrated
through different representative systems: a three generator system with given generation cost table, IEEE
30 bus system with quadratic cost functions, 10 generator system having piecewise quadratic cost functions
and a 20 generator system considering transmission losses. A comparison of the computation times
of different algorithms is also carried out.
