Optimal Management of Fuel Cell Power Plant by Using Genetic Algorithm

This paper presents an energy management strategy to supply residential load in hybrid fuel cell power plant (FCPP) using genetic algorithm. Economical fuel cell (FC) model includes thermal load, local electrical load, operational cost, start-up cost and different tariffs on electricity during the day hour is discussed. the proposed energy management strategy has been modelled as a multi-tasking optimization problem. Also, the extended Genetic algorithm (GA) is used to determine optimal operation of FCPP with respect to six-minute time steps in load pattern change
