The static and dynamic economic dispatch problems are solved by creating an enhanced version of ant lion optimisation (ALO), namely a tournament selection-based ant lion optimisation (TALO) method. The proposed algorithm is presented to solve the combined economic and emission dispatch (CEED) problem with considering the generator constraints such as ramp rate limits, valvepoint effects, prohibited operating zones and transmission loss. The proposed algorithm’s efficiency was tested using a 5-unit generating system in MATLAB R2021a during a 24-hour time span. When compared to previous optimization methods, the suggested TALO reduces the costs of fuel and pollution by 9.01 and 4.7 percent, respectively. Furthermore, statistical analysis supports the suggested TALO optimization superiority over other methods. It is observed that the renewable energy output can be stabilized in the future by combining a hybrid dynamic economic and emission dispatch model with thermal power units, wind turbines, solar and energy storage devices to achieve the balance between operational costs and pollutant emissions.
