This paper presented an effective technique for considering optimal scheduling of microgrid (MG) with islanding constraints. The proposed optimal scheduling approach is the combination of both the modified dragonfly algorithm (MDA) and whale optimization algorithm (WOA)-based approach named as (MDAWO). In this work, the searching conduct of the dragonflies is altered by the effective WOA approach. This WOA is used to the optimal scheduling of MG and also significantly reduces the computational burden. In this paper, the MDAWO is the appraisal technique used to set up the definite schedule of the MG coupling subject to the power assortment. The equality and inequality constraints are utilized to characterize the target capacity of a projected approach using the system information. Batteries act as an energy source to adjust the MG with continual running at an unfaltering and stable output control. Finally, the performance of the proposed technique is executed through the MATLAB/Simulink working platform with two different scenarios. With these two different scenarios, the proposed technique performance is compared with existing techniques such as dragonfly algorithm, firefly and gravitational search algorithm. Furthermore, the statistical analysis of the proposed technique based on cost and fitness are analyzed. Numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed MG optimal scheduling model and explore its economic and reliability merits.
