In this research, quantum-behaved bat algorithm (QBA) is proposed and applied to solve non-linear multi-objective CEED problem. Valve-point effect is considered along with CEED as a practical constraint of power generation system. QBA is applied to 10-unit power generation system and compared separately as single objective economic and emission dispatch problems as well as multi-objective CEED problem with other existing methods like ABCPSO, DE, NSGA-II, SPEA-2 and SA. The obtained results and comparison of results demonstrate the power of QBA in terms of solution quality, convergence characteristics and computational efficiency. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.
