Summary:The crow search arithmetic optimization algorithm (CSAOA) method is introduced in this article as a novel hybrid optimization technique. This proposed strategy is a population-based metaheuristic method inspired by crows’ food-hiding techniques and merged with a recently created simple yet robust arithmetic optimization algorithm (AOA). The proposed method’s performance and superiority over other existing methods is evaluated using six benchmark functions that are unimodal and multimodal in nature, and real-time optimization problems related to power systems, such as the weighted dynamic economic emission dispatch (DEED) problem. A load-shifting mechanism is also implemented, which reduces the system’s generation cost even further. An extensive technical study is carried out to compare the weighted DEED to the penalty factor-based DEED and arrive at a superior compromise option. The effects of CO2, SO2, and NOx are studied independently to determine their impact on system emissions. In addition, the weights are modified from 0.1 to 0.9, and the effects on generating cost and emission are investigated. Nonparametric statistical analysis asserts that the proposed CSAOA is superior and robust.
