Abstract: The long-term hydropower generation scheduling (LHGS) is one of the most important problems which aim to obtain a suitable scheme to maximize electrical benefits. In this paper, a gradient based Harmony search algorithm (GHS) is employed on the optimization of the cascade hydropower stations in the Jinsha River. Firstly, the original Harmony search algorithm (HS) is firstly improved by a dynamically adjustment strategy and global pitch adjustment strategy. Then random gradient strategy is adopted to improve the search speed of HS. In case study, the proposed GHS is used to solve the LHGS problem in the Jinsha River. Results show that GHS is effectiveness when dealing with LHGS problems.
