This paper proposes application of BAT algorithm for solving economic loaddispatch problem. BAT algorithmic rule is predicated on the localizationcharacteristics of micro bats. The proposed approach has been examined andtested with the numerical results of economic load dispatch problems withthree and five generating units with valve point loading without consideringprohibited operating zones and ramp rate limits. The results of the projectedBAT formula are compared with that of other techniques such as lambdaiteration GA PSO APSO ABC and basic principle. For each the cases theprojected algorithmic program outperforms the answer reported for theexisting algorithms. Additionally the promising results show the hardinessquick convergence and potency of the projected technique.
