Thermal Power Plant Emissions Minimization taking into account Losses in Network

This paper introduces a multipurpose mode optimization model for power system aimed to minimizing the fuel consumption of the electricpower generation process, as well as decreasing the negative effect on the environment and decreasing power losses. During the optimization, technological constraints of the power system mode are taken into account in the form of linear and non-linear equations. The use of the method is illustrated by applying it on a test system composed of three stations. As a result of the optimization, additional expenses needed for compensating ecologically harmful influences on the environment are estimated.
