Clean energy and water are two essential resources that any society must securely deliver in order to develop sustainably. Recently, the energy and water infrastructure value chains have gained attention as a single interlinked system of global concern called the energy–water nexus. In light...

In this paper, a hybrid method integrating the fuzzy adaptive chaotic ant swarm optimization (FCASO) algorithm and the sequential quadratic programming (SQP) techniques, named FCASO-SQP method, is presented for solving the economic dispatch (ED) problems in power systems. The FCASO algorithm is...
