5.1.8 Problem
• The economic dispatch problem is:
min { f (P)|AP = b, P ≤ P ≤ P} = min { f (P)|AP = b}. (5.5)

example.
• This can be generalized to the case of upper and lower bound constraints:
(λ)
∀k = 1, . . . , nP , Pk ∈ argmin { fk (Pk ) − λPk |Pk ≤ Pk ≤ Pk }. (5.7)
Pk ∈R
• Note that we have “dualized” the equality constraint but not the inequality
constraints.
