The invention discloses a brainstorm-based scheduling method for the economic environment of a thermal power plant. The steps include: step 1, determining the mathematical model of the environmental economic scheduling problem of the thermal power plant; step 2, obtaining various parameters in the model; step 3, obtaining the environment The initial feasible scheduling set of the economic scheduling problem; Step 4, evaluate the feasible scheduling set; Step 5, update the feasible scheduling; Step 6, judge whether the entire feasible scheduling is updated; Step 7, evaluate the non-inferior scheduling in the external archive set The solution set is updated; step 8, iteratively outputs the final feasible scheduling scheme, and it is completed. The method of the present invention uses the thermal power plant as the power supply system, utilizes the collection and analysis of the data of the power system and the thermal power plant, and combines the brainstorming optimization algorithm based on the idea of clustering and variation to realize the solution to the thermal power plant economic scheduling problem that requires comprehensive environmental protection solve.
