Abstract
The effective utilization of available sources in equating the load demand on an hourly basis can be implemented
using unit commitment. This paper presents the novel hybrid method which is the amalgamation of a whale optimization
algorithm (WOA) and a self-organizing migrating algorithm (SOMA) for obtaining the optimal value of an optimization
problem related to unit commitment. The WOA method is applied for assessing optimal strength population from the
stochastically generated populations which is essential in a migrating loop. SOMA works on the strategy of ALL to ALL.
Two test systems are considered to evaluate the potential of the proposed hybrid method. Initially, a four-unit system is
conducted followed by IEEE 39 bus system. The obtained simulation outcome is made comparison with the literature
methods to address the effectiveness of the proposed hybrid WAO-SOMA.
