This study presents the implementation of two metaheuristic methods, Coot Optimization Algorithm (COOT) and Marine Predators Algorithm (MPA), to determine optimal results for a modified Optimal Power Flow (OPF) problem that includes wind power plants (WPPs). The study evaluates COOT and MPA across various versions of the OPF problem, including a basic OPF scenario that does not consider any renewable energy sources and a modified OPF scenario that includes the impact of WPPs. To assess the effectiveness of the two methods, the IEEE 30-node system and its modified versions are utilized. In the case without WPPs, COOT results in lower costs compared to MPA and other methods. In other cases, COOT method also demonstrates better cost savings than MPA. Consequently, COOT is regarded as a powerful and innovative metaheuristic for addressing the OPF problem, particularly in the context of increasing the use of renewable energy in power systems.
