Abstract

In recent days, many novel techniques and technologies are develo** for power generation. Most of them are in its developed phase but its efficiency and reliability are low. Some of them have no running cost but its installation is costly. Some others are not cost effective and its cost to benefit ratio is poor. Because of all these reasons optimization techniques are required to expand the productivity, reliability and decrease the expense by optimal utilization of the resources and controlling methods. This chapter is mainly deals with basic and important metaheuristics optimization techniques used for power generation through renewable energy resources. Metaheuristic optimization approaches like Particle-Swarm Optimization (PSO), Differential-Evolution (DE), Tabu-Search (TS), Simulation-Annealing (SA), Genetic-Algorithm (GA), Artificial-Bee Colony (ABC), Ant-Colony Optimization (ACO), Cuckoo-Search (CS), and Biogeography-Based Optimization (BBO) are applicable on power generation using renewable energy resources. Some optimization techniques are good for solar PV system like PSO, ACO, ABC, DE etc., and some other optimization techniques like GA, CS, TS, BBO etc. for Battery storage using renewable hybrid system and design wind farm layouts. Applications of various metaheuristics optimization approaches for different renewable energy and hybrid systems are present in this chapter.
